  • I do not encourage anyone to enter culverts, unclog anything, or enter flooded areas as it can easily become deadly without the proper training
    I unclog drains for fun in my spare time (I have been trained in culvert inspections for years with private co.) and I am osha trained.
    Exploring anything abandoned can be dangerous or deadly without experience. I don't encourage anyone to enter any abandoned structures. Not only is safety a concern, but often times its illegal, and when possible I seek out permission from the owner or local police. I simply go to document its history before it's gone forever and I leave things the way I find them. I only take pictures and only leave footprints. I assume all the risks and responsibility before doing this. Please don't attempt to do this on your own. There could be nails, asbestos, falling concrete, soft floors, animals, or other hazards.

    I really don't like aluminum pots. I'm going to try and find anouther pot for next year. Sugar eats aluminum, that's why the pot went through a visible change but I heavy metal tested it and it passed. Just a side note. Thanks for watching
    Edit. Using 1/4 Inner diameter hose. Always do outside. May make surfaces sticky and moisture damage.

    In case people are wondering:
    Maple trees are tapped when temperatures alternate between freezing and thawing. Nighttime temperatures must drop below freezing (in the 20s), and daytime temperatures must reach 40 to 50 degrees. Before winter, the maple trees store starch in their trunks and roots, which gets converted into sugar.

    A book of Native American stories for children had a story about maple syrup that I used to like a lot. It related that, once upon a time, syrup came out of maple trees at full strength, and everything was good. However, after a few years, the people discovered that they could tap the trees and just lay under them with their mouths open. This displeased one of their guiding spirits (the Corn Mother? Not sure) because the people were getting fat and lazy, and were not grateful for what they received. So, that night, she took her birch bucket and poured water into the tops of all of the maple trees, and in the morning the people couldn't lay under the trees all day. If they finished all of their hunting and farming for the day, they could collect sap and boil it down into syrup, but not until then.
    It was an interesting story about consequences. This video reminded me of it well, with the differences in volume between the sap collected and the syrup refined.

    I used to help a friend's family empty buckets of sap when I was a kid. They had a ladle and cup by the storage vat so you could drink some sap if you got thirsty. Just a hint of sweetness, extremely refreshing when you're lugging heavy buckets! Usually nice and cold too, since there was always a giant chunk of ice in the middle of the vat.

    GIven the sap was already frozen in the bucket, I wonder if you could've started off with some freeze concentration - I'm reading a 4-fold concentration increase should be practically possible, although some sources claim up to 10x should be "easily" doable. Maybe saves a bunch on fuel costs, I would assume.
