Dean Burgess from Bothways farm in Essex reports, “Its Maple syrup cooking time”

Hi joe,It’s Dean Burgess from Bothways farm in essex ,Its Maple syrup cooking time ,I have to boil down anywhere from 60 to 70 gallons of maple tree sap to get 1 gallon of maple syrup.This is a wood fired sap burner which will take about 3 days straight to burn off all the water .I then use a hydrometer to get the right density of syrup in order to bottle it up.
