Making Maple Syrup

Posted in In My Kitchen

Well it's that time of the year again.  Yes, time for maple syrup!!  We only have two maples on our property, but that is still enough for a yummy treat.  We tapped one yesterday and the biggest one today.  Here is a little clip of us making syrup.

We're going to tap tomorrow or Saturday. I've never done this before. What size bit did you end up using for the hole? I've talked to the syrup makers around here and received a lot of good advice, but I guess experience is the best teacher.
Thanks for the video.
