Finishing and Filtering Maple Syrup

Showing how I check to make sure the sugar content is correct and filtering the syrup for the last time before canning it.
Link to the filter and prefilters I used for this video in the comments.

Please consider a blooper video to end 2019! I’m certain you have to edit out some great content.

Eric Johnson good idea-next week’s video has some pretty interesting things coming up.

Could you link the filters you are using? Thanks!!!

Kirsten Wise good idea, thanks! Here is the main filter, from Bascom’s www.bascommaple.com/item/fsyn8/filter_cone/
I use two or three prefilters each time. Those come in a package of 12 I think and are on the same website. Usually I rinse the prefilters and reuse them once. After the second time I pitch the prefilters as they aren’t very expensive. Hope that helps!

Nice. You can filter at 219 with no issues. It’s best to do that.

Thanks for the advice and for watching.
