Sugar Museum (25 photos)
Sugar was known to man since ancient times. Sugar is considered the birthplace of India.
In different countries, this substance mined in many different ways: the Chinese did sugar from sorghum, Egyptians - from the beans, Canadians - from maple sap, and Poles - from birch, Lithuanians - from the roots of parsnip, and in Belarus - parsley.
It is in India have found a way to get sugar from cane.
For obtaining sugar cut stalks of sugar cane before flowering. Cut stems crush and squeeze juice. The juice contains about 18% sugar and 80% water. Then the juice was added to the slaked lime and heated to 70 ° C, then filtered and evaporated to crystallisation. At the moment - it is one of the main ways to get sugar. Leading position in the world in the production and export of sugar occupy Brazil, India and China.
Also, sugar is produced from sugar beets. Interesting fact: it was in Berlin in 1747 by the German chemist Andreas Sigismund Marggraf (Ger. Andreas Sigismund Marggraf) found with a microscope sugar crystals in thin slices of beet root, which led eventually to the emergence of the sugar beet industry.
Sugar is free-flowing, hard, lumpy, crushed, candy, brown, stone ...
Berlin Museum of sugar more than 100 years. It was founded in 1904.
Here you will learn about the history of sugar. The museum itself is not so big, but interesting information and a lot of things.
Sugar from all over the world.
Let's see how to create an unusual product of sugar. Quite by chance we got to a small demonstration to be performed by the museum once a week, on Sundays. Since time was quite a bit, we were shown how to work with only sugar (caramel). Master before our eyes made Christmas wreath with three candles. To do this he needed ingredients and items that you see in the picture:
In containers had been prepared beforehand sugar (caramel) plates of different colors. For almost any color he uses yellow, red, blue and white plate. Master puts the required amount of sweet material under a special lamp. After the sugar warmed plates, with the material you can do almost anything. Stretching his arms again and folding stretching weight material can be given a uniform (or nearly uniform) color. Thus was created a Christmas wreath.
Now go to the candle and stand under the candle. Stands for the master did not take the finished material, it melted sugar on the tiny stove-top, adding some dark food coloring.
When the substance is boiled, he poured it in small portions at a special board.
After our podstavochki slightly cooled and become solid, they can prodekorirovat.
To save time, two candles were already pre-cooked. The last candle master made on the spot. Cooling pad under the hairdryer and fasten to the candle.
You're just sticking to the bottom.
The result here is a sweet Christmas wreath. Nothing special of course, but more importantly, we understand the principle.
It is an art. With all the "tools" you can do in the home. If someone was very interested, you can go to, for example, here and learn more about the art of sugar.
