You will need to test the taffy by dropping a little bit in cold water. When the taffy in the water forms a "hard ball," it is ready. It is interesting to test the taffy along the way. At first it will just dissolve in the water. As it cooks more you will be able to form a ball with it. At first the ball of taffy will be soft (soft ball stage), getting more firm the longer you cook it. Eventually it will form a hard ball. If you cook it too long, it will turn hard as soon as it touches the cold water and you will be able to break it. Good luck with your taffy. I hope this helps.

What is a false boil?

A false boil is basically a cooking "old wives tale." It was based on the assumption that placing a lid on a pot of water to boil it caused pressure to build up which caused air bubbles to be forced into the water, giving an appearance of a boil, when boiling temperature had not actually been reached. In actuality, the lid helps the water to reach the boiling point faster.
