Theory 126/Honey crystallisation/Ratio lens
Granulation Is a Sugar Ratio
The claim
Granulation tendency is set by the ratio of glucose to fructose, so honeys of equal total sugar differ in how fast they set.
01Mechanism
Glucose crystallises readily while fructose stays in solution; the ratio determines the driving force.
02Prediction
Granulation should track the ratio.
03Refutation
Granulation tracking total sugar would remove composition.
