If you take the juice right from the cane and boil it down the molasses crystallizes and you get a rock hard brown sugar that in Colombia is called Panela. You just take the cane juice and put in a giant metal bowl and stir constantly while it boils and then when it starts boiling you move it to another metal bowl and repeat the process a few times until you're left with a thick syrup which is poured into molds to cool in and that's how Panela is made.

That kind of stuff crushed into gravel-sized pieces is sold as Kandis over here and is a special treat for tea (provided one drinks tea with sugar). As a kid I loved to put the pieces into my mouth to slowly dissolve like normal hard candy. Especially the brown ones. Never would have thought that it was made by a different process than regular sugar until I just read up on it online....

They are overprocessing it here in order to make the sugar last longer. In reality getting the sugar out of sugar cane really just requires juicing it and then slowly drying the water out until you get brown crystals, it has to be done slowly though or you'll caramelize the sugar.

@@yukinagato1573 It's really not necessary as anyone who has juiced sugarcane can tell you. Sugarcane juice is delicious and sugar crystals is just painfully sweet. Crystallized sugarcane juice not only has some actual nutrition, but also tastes really good. The issue is that all those non-sucrose molecules don't last as long as desert-dry pure sucrose. If you don't process sugar it lasts like 3 days without refrigeration before mold and bacteria grow on it.

Growing up in the southern US. Our family had a sugar cane roller press, and cooking pot. My brother and I would go cut the cane, load it on a trailer and bring it to the roller press. My father would feed the cane into the mill. We didn't have a mule to turn the long beam on the roller press, So we had our grandmother on a riding mower to drive in a circle for hours on end. She was fine as long as she had her Lucky Strikes and cup of coffee. The Juice from the press went to the syrup pot where my grandfather would boil and stoke the fire.

It wasn't sudden. It took fifteen hundred years to go from an obscure plant in New Guinea to a cash crop in Central America. It involved Austronesian navigators, Indian doctors, Egyptian millers, Crusader kings, New World explorers, and Industrial scientists. Many tens of thousands of people - the vast majority of them doomed to obscurity - put thought into to how to improve every part of the process from the genetics and cultivation of the cane to the packaging and distribution of the product. If you're really interested, there are likely dozens of engaging books packed with stranger-than-fiction stories of how sugar came to be.

In India, we make five things from sugarcane; without using sulphur or other chemicals 1) Sheeraa 2) Gud 3) Sharkara / Shakkar 4) Khaand 5) Boora. processes are simple 1) juice is boiled ,wild lady finger plant ( or a particular tree bark ) is added to separate impurities , floating impurities removed & the thick syruppy liquid is SHEERAA. 2) further cooked, almost solid , poured in fist sizes or 2.5 kg chunks to cool , loose moisture & solidify for an hour or two is GUD. 3) SHAKKAR looks like grains of Gud but has a little different taste - don't know the exact process to make. 4) Gud has 1.5-2 cm wheat-brownish layers & in between , there are whitish 2-3 mm layers. if pushed with a spud ( khurpa खुरपा ), along the white layer , it divides in two. The white layer from both parts is peeled using the same spud & separated is called KHAAND. the remaining brown part is again made into Gud balls ( little less sweeter ) & used as suppliment to the cattle feed. (humans also can & do eat it) 5) Khaand boiled in milk , impurities removed (& may be washed, not sure ) & again crystallined (white , small grains ) is called BOORA . ( served to special guests with Ghee , in North India ).

Your process is simpler because you're not making white/refined sugar. Your sugar is brown for a reason. 3. White, brown, raw sugar have different uses. Contrary to popular belief, despite brown sugar having slightly more minerals than white/refined ones, the difference is so miniscule that they both essentially have the same nutritional effect. Intake of all of type of sugar should be in moderation.

Sweet video!
nice vid!
This is exactly the same process of turning bauxite into alumina powder... I worked at a refinery for 8 years... I'd know this process anywhere... What in the world. Digestion, clarification, precipitation and calcination.
That’s a sweet job !

its the same my bro, they just dont process it
This is sweet!
So I start the video and I hear "trucks empty their load" and "extract the juice". This is not the video I ordered 😂
There's no food on your table without industrial processes folks. Remember this video the next time you hear a hysteria like "pink slime." It was a chance to make ground beef safe, but we blew it.
I have been living in a town Mandya, known as sugar town where there are 6 sugar producing factories are here. I know this process. At the end of the processing, the sugar is sprayed with bone Ash which turns it to clear white. But the bone is obtained from different places. Animal bones are processed in a separate factory outside the town. Just you go near the bonemeal processing, it smells hell.

Oh. Ok now it makes sense. There’s Mexican sugar that says it’s not made with bone ash. I never understood what that meant. And ewwww.

@@ntmn8444 I live in London it’s easier to avoid here as we now have a tax on sugar, so most manufacturers greatly reduced the amount they use, except for coke they didn’t reduce at all, so a can of coke costs a lot here compared to other brands. Our obesity problem is more due to fat content, KFC et cetera. Sugar is the new tobacco here now and is considered to be almost unacceptable.
