The HOT liquid is key......it breaks down (melts) the sugar so no "graininess".
I never sift my PS.........too much work. icon_biggrin.gif

I get my Sweetex from GFS (Gordons Food Service). I just call them or stop by the store and place a special order. They don't have it on the shelf, it has to be ordered. It's about 75.00 for 50 lbs. and takes a couple of days to get it in.
