I boiled the six gallons of maple sap yesterday. I started about 10 a.m. and finished at 8:30 p.m. There was so much humidity in the house that the windows were steamed, the toilet tank sweated, and my hair looked like Angela Davis' hair. I wasn't paying enough attention at the end and the syrup turned out thicker and darker than last year. The 2013 vintage is on the left and the 2014 vintage is on the right. Both taste sweet.
