This is not a candy recipe to make in more than one batch. Also, for lower altitudes, cook to a few degrees above the recommended 242 as the caramels will still be VERY soft. Melt-out-of-the-wax-paper-wrappings-soft. **BUT** when you follow the directions and cook only one batch at a time, these caramels are out-of-this-world good.
