Dextran Control in the Sugar House

Dr. Day, D.F.  1984.  There is no easy solution to minimizing dextran levels in sugar but a few obvious practices should help: always mill the freshest cane possible; pay strict attention to mill sanitation especially in the problem areas; and where possible blend high and low dextran sugars to achieve acceptable penalty levels.
