I am going to use 600ml of water, but I can't figurer out how much karo I would need to add.

I know I want 5% karo, but how much is that in ml?
That would be 30ml, right?

30ml isn't it? 10% would be 60ml of 600ml of water, so i would assume half of 10% is 5%, which 10% being 60ml divide that by two and you get 30ml, which would be 5%...

or something like that.

shorthand version: 30ml of karo to 600ml of h2o

my scientific method: LC tek

I personally don't like 5%.

I would use 2-4% myself if I were you.
I'd actually throw in a bit of sugar in the raw too.

So for your 600ml jar, I would add:

Just Karo: 12ml-24ml (2.5-5 teaspoons)
Karo + Sugar in the Raw: 10ml (2 tsp.) Karo, 1 teaspoon Sugar in the Raw.

1 teaspoon = 4.92892161 milliliters

so basically 5ml = 1 teaspoon.

I like the karo + sure Idea:thumbup:, have you used it with success before?

If I go with 3-4% karo, how much raw sugar should I add?

yeah monstermitch knows what he's talking about, adding sugar in the raw is a good boost.

I use Karo and Malt Syrup, the kind used for milkshapes. Real Malt.

yes, I've used karo and sugar in the raw together successfully
dozens of times before.

when I make my own LC, I use a little of four different things:

Karo (light corn syrup)
Sugar in the Raw (turbinado sugar)
Ligt Dry Malt
Dextrose (corn sugar)

^^this is not done yet at all.  but you get the idea...


So for your case, I would NOT add 3-4% Karo.
the total you want is 3-4%, not 3-4% of each.
more is not better.  less is better.
in my own opinion that is...

So I would add 2 teaspoons of Karo (10ml) per jar
and 1-2 teaspoons of Sugar in the Raw (turbinado) (5-10ml) per jar.

I like 5% corn syrup, but would very much like to try a malt. Maybe 2-3% malt and 2-3% corn syrup? Would light dry malt extract, as used in beer brewing, be good to use?

I made 3 LC's with this recipe

600ml H20
15ml Karo
1&1/2tsp of table sugar

Will it work better than just plain Karo LC?

5% of 600ml is

.05 X 600ml = 30ml
.04 X 600ml = 24ml
.03 X 600ml = 18ml


remember this simple useful formula :smile:
