Sorghum Syrup

YouTube user HORTICULTUREVIDEOS presents a fast and easy way to make Sorghum Syrup. Sorghum syrup is easy to make and it is delicious. In this clip we are using the PITEBA oil extractor to press the juice out of the sorghum stalks. Sorghum stalks can be juiced and boiled down into syrup. To make sorghum syrup, we'll first need to mash, crush or press the juice out of the stalks. This could be done with an electric juice extractor or a wheat-grass juicer. We're using an oil extractor which is similar to a wheat-grass juicer. Hand powered tools are great for learning about the basic mechanics of bigger machines. Small pieces of cane are fed into the juicer while the crank is turning. A green juice will begin flow out of the sorghum stems. At this stage the juice is already quite sweet and aromatic. The crushed canes or "cake" can then be composted, fed to animals, or soaked in hot water to extract more sugar. Now we can simmer down the sorghum juice on a stove top. Pour the juice in a pot and set the burner on medium high. Small bubbles and steam will rise from the liquid. The water is carried away with the steam and syrup will form as the sugar gets more concentrated. We need to stir the thickening juice regularly to keep the syrup from burning. As soon as the liquid drips slowly like syrup we can turn off the heat. Keep in mind that the syrup will get thicker as it cools down. Pour the syrup off into a glass jar. We can also cap the syrup while it's still hot. This will ...
