Thank you for making this video. Our home is on 43 acres and after being here for 9 years, we JUST found about 30 maple trees at the back of the property. For our first time ever, We used your bucket idea, made a barrel stove and processed 11 litres of the tastiest maple syrup I have ever had. So thank you for the inspiration: ) Just a couple corrections on your video write up. it takes approx 40 litres of sap (not 4) for 1 litre of syrup, and syrup forms at -219F (at sealevel) not 212F. Again, thank you and keep up the great videos! All the best to you and your family!

I buy a 4L jug every year, and top up a bottle, and keep that in the fridge. The rest of the jug goes into the freezer until I need to top up the bottle again. That jug lasts us a year, and I've never had any mold doing it that way. I did get mold once in a bottle in the fridge, but looking into it on-line, everyone says the same thing. skim off the mold, then heat the syrup to just the start of a boil, then pour it into a clean bottle and you are good to go. No need to throw it away. Loving this series!

Duuuude, the raft house would be sick. There are numerous -house boats- in Woods Hole on Cape Cod, down here in Massachusetts. They're essentially the same thing. Most people live in them for the summer then take them out for winter. Google it. -house boats woods hole, MA-. Some are pretty extravagant, like my buddy Terry's triple decker. DO IT!

2am- woke up wide awake & watching the rest of this video. I was 30 before I ever got to see or taste maple syrup IRL. I loved all the maple flavoured products in Canada when i visited BC. But as for pancakes- I can suggest people try lemon juice with raw sugar on top if they haven't already. That's what we ate Down Under in my family. :)

most t shirts use very harmful chemicals to dye the shirt, which is why you should always wash your shirts before put them on if you have sensitive skin, so i don't think using a shirt is the best idea for filtering something you plan to eat. might not effect you now, but who knows, could have long lasting effects.

This video kills me. I want to make pancakes for supper. I passed by a local farm today and noticed that last night-s strong winds had dislodged their sugar pails. Sad.
That little girl and her mama are absolutely beautiful. Nothing like ginger hair!

Ever give any thought to building some kind of cover over the side deck? Seems like it's always covered in snow, and maybe some kind of overhead cover might help keep snow and weather off it.

Reminds me of Russia when I visited back in '98. They sold birch sap on the street. Actually tasted mild but nice. Now I want to try maple. :) Thanks for an interesting video.

You know you can replace the egg in the pancake with a squished up banana for banana pancakes, good for people who can't or won't eat eggs.
