I have a Dauntless divided pan, 4th year. I’ve gotten my syrup to +7 degrees or more but the Murphy cup hydrometer test does not show that it is “finished”. This didn’t seem to be the case in past years. This is a very early season. Is there something you know about why the temperature and the Murphy test don’t seem to correlate like past years?
