The present invention relates to a novel method and apparatus for automatically detecting and controlling the degree of caramelization of candies, which provides a detector for continuously detecting the degree of caramelization of caramelized liquid which is connected to a control unit for automatically adjusting the increase or decrease in the degree of caramelization to maintain it at a predetermined control limit. The control unit further includes a pump for continuously feeding a treatment tank with the liquid caramelized to a constant state and a feature for simultaneously keeping the degree of caramelization at a constant when the automatic changes in the quantity of caramelized liquid, due to variations of operating conditions in subsequent processes, occur. |
