Crystallization refers to the formation of solid crystals from a homogeneous solution. It is essentially a solid-liquid separation technique and a very important one at that. Crystals are grown in many shapes, which are dependent upon downstream processing or final product requirements.he salt that will not dissolve will help the first step in crystallization begin. This first step is called nucleation or primary nucleation. The salt resting at the bottom of the pot will provide a site for nucleation to occur. Primary nucleation is the first step in crystallization.
Cool temperatures [below 50 Â°F (10 Â°C)] are ideal for preventing crystallization. Moderate temperatures [50â70 Â°F (10â21 Â°C)] generally encourage crystallization. Warm temperatures [70â81 Â°F (21â27 Â°C)] discourage crystallization but degrade the honey. Very warm temperatures [over 81 Â°F (27 Â°C)] prevent crystallization but encourage spoilage by fermentation as well as degrading the honey. McGee, H. 1984. âOn Food and Crane, E. 1980.
