The begause ( Spelling? ) which is the canes from which the leaves = have been burned in the field is put through rollers which presses out the sugar sap. The begause is then burned, the heat used to remove the water from the sap and dry the sugar and the surplus heat is used to dry the incoming begause so it burns better.=20 All the burning of course ends up with brown sugar which must be = refined in less energy efficient factories. A very energy efficient operation but you better have an experienced = man on hand to direct things or it can end up with lots of trouble.=20 On an earlier post you talked about green versus dry wood. The lad I get my firewood from tells me that this year forward he only = supplies wood above 15 cms - approximately. The smaller wood is chipped green for heat but I never asked where the heat is produced. Bigger wood costs too much to chip. Suits me fine!
