Our Maple Syrup

Sugaring is a time honored tradition in the Northeast

How Maple Syrup is Made

Tapping

The process starts with drilling a tap hole into a maple tree. In the months leading up to sugaring season, sugar makers will begin tapping trees in anticipation of the first sap run. A spout is inserted to direct the sap to either a bucket or into tubing that sends the sap to a large collection tank at the sugar house or a central collection area using a vacuum pump.

Boiling

From the storage tanks, the sap put through a reverse osmosis (RO) machine, which takes a percentage of the water from the sap before boiling.
The evaporation process sends clouds of sweet maple scented steam billowing from the sugarhouse steam stacks.
An evaporator is where the boiling takes place. Stainless steel pans sit atop an arch, or firebox, where wood creates an intense fire. As the water in the sap evaporates, the sap thickens.

When the thermometer in the pan reaches 219 degrees the syrup is ready to draw off. Even though it looks like the finished product it will still need to be filtered, adjusted for density and graded for flavor and color.
