What's the sugar content of the fresh cane juice? With that ratio of juice to syrup it must be at least 25 to 30 degrees Brix.

Stephen,
    I grow 2 acres of sugarcane in North Florida and make syrup----100% sugarcane syrup. It's expensive to make. A heavy mill is needed to efficiently press the juice from the stalks and then cookware to process the juice into syrup can add expense if making more than a gallon of syrup at a time. The processing rate is about 7 gallons of juice to 1 gallon of syrup, on average.
