Water boils and evaporates at a lower temperature at high altitude than at sea level. Thus, the concentration of a candy mixture is affected. Use a good quality candy thermometer and test it each time you intend to use it. Immerse the bulb in a saucepan of water, bring to a boil and boil for several minutes. If the temperature reads more or less than 212° F, you will have to adjust the cooking temperature up or down by that much. For example, if the temperature of the boiling water is 206° F, you will have to reduce the temperatures called for in your recipes by 6°.
