Candimic Dark-78 Candy Syrup – 500g
Deep, dark candy syrup with high fermentability and intense flavors of molasses, dried fruit, and burnt caramel.
Candimic Dark-78 from Belgosuc is a powerful dark candy syrup made from sugar beets and specially developed for beer styles that require depth, body, and dark complexity. With its very high color value (1800–2000 EBC) and 100% fermentability of dry matter, it provides a clear alcohol contribution without residual sweetness – while adding complex, deep flavor nuances.
Taste and Aroma – Intense and Complex
This syrup imparts rich and distinct flavors of molasses, burnt caramel, dried fruit, and licorice, with an almost roasted depth that suits the heaviest beer styles. Compared to lighter candy syrup, Candimic Dark-78 has a distinctly more robust character – ideal when you want a powerful and complex result.

Frequently asked questions about Candimic Dark-78
Does the candy syrup make the beer sweeter?
No. The syrup is 100% fermentable, so it adds alcohol, colour and flavour without residual sweetness.
When do I add the syrup?
It is usually added during the boil. It then mixes well into the wort, and the boil sterilises it.
How dark is the syrup?
The colour is 1800–2000 EBC, so even small amounts give a clear colour.
How should I store the syrup?
Dry and clean in the sealed original packaging. Store it above 15 °C, as the syrup can crystallise at lower temperatures.
