What is the output of brown sugar?

1, the ancient method of making brown sugar is: cutting and crushing the harvested sugarcane, and removing impurities such as soil, bacteria and fiber before juicing. And then simmer for 5-6 hours with low fire, and stir constantly to make the water slowly evaporate, so that the sugar concentration gradually increases, and the high-concentration syrup will solidify into a solid block of coarse sugar, that is, brown sugar bricks, which maintains the original nutrition of sugarcane. The longer the cooking time in the production process, the darker the color of the brown sugar brick, which makes the brown sugar appear reddish brown in different shades, while our common traditional brown sugar powder is made by grinding the brown sugar brick.

2. Production method of brown sugar commonly known as "yellow sugar" in Gongcheng, Guangxi: The yellow sugar is boiled by indigenous methods. First, the unloaded sugarcane is squeezed by a press, and the juice "spit out" by the press will flow into a large iron pot with lining through a small tube, and then it will be fired. When the pot is boiled, the impurities floating on the upper layer will be filtered out, and the remaining juice will be scooped into another pot to form real sugar water. After the syrup with extremely high sugar concentration is solidified, the sugar boiler pours it into a prepared plastic bed for condensation and block molding, and pieces of golden and sweet yellow sugar bricks are born.

The traditional process of making brown sugar is usually at 126 degrees Celsius. Natural folic acid (decomposed at 90 degrees), amino acids, vitamins and other nutrients that are easily decomposed at high temperature cannot be retained.

3, health brown sugar production process:

Modern industrial production mode 1;

Brown sugar and accessories (different health brown sugar will add different accessories, such as ginger powder, onion powder, pepper powder, jujube powder, gelatin powder, rose powder and so on. ) is physically mixed according to a certain proportion (because it has not been treated at high temperature, it is best to cook it in a pot when eating). Because of its simple production method and low equipment investment, most manufacturers adopt this production method.

Modern industrial production mode II:

In the process of brown sugar boiling, auxiliary materials are directly added and boiled with brown sugar at high temperature (generally up to 125 degrees). Due to the complexity of this process and high equipment investment, only a few domestic enterprises adopt this method for production.

Brown sugar contains about 95% sucrose, which retains more nutrients in sugarcane and is easily digested and absorbed by human body, so it can quickly replenish physical strength and increase vitality, so it is also called' chocolate of the East'. It not only contains carbohydrates that can provide heat energy, but also contains malic acid, riboflavin, carotene, nicotinic acid, manganese, zinc, chromium and other indispensable trace elements for human growth and development.
