SET TIMERS AS A REMINDER TO STIR!!! I tried this last week with a half gallon, got caught up in my crochet project and forgot to stir and totally effed it up. Came out to a bubbling black mess when I noticed the smell. Tried again today with a gallon and it turned out great. Took 4.5 hours with an enameled cast iron Dutch oven, set timers to stir every 20 min for the first 3 hours, more frequently after that. Definitely worth the trial and error, looking forward to making cookies and apple cider caramel truffles with it
