I came up 5 points low on a saison. I've been itching to put some date molasses into a brew, so it looks like fate has chosen my saison to be the inaugural batch. Should I boil it before adding it to the fermentor? My calculations put it right around the same gravity points per pound as honey. I'm assuming it's a hygroscopic solution, so it might be safe without a boil -- should I risk it or just heat it up and cool it first?
