Crush Candi Sugar before boiling?

[dancness]

Would this make sense so the sugar dissolves quicker and doesn't burn?

What are you making? If its a belgian triple I would add it at the end of the fermentation to allow the yeast to work on the complex sugars first..

Actually I am making a Belgian tripel, and I was planning on adding it after primary fermentation is over.

But you didn't answer my question. Should I crush it before I boil it?

Sorry.. Some do some don't, ive even just thrown it in without boiling and let it desolve in the beer.. Its a preference thingy but I wouldn't worry about scorching it.

I don't think it matters either.
