∙ 11y agoMaple sap is on average about 2% sugar. Therefore it takes about 40 gallons of maple sap to make one gallon of maple syrup. A rough way to calculate this is called the "Jones Rule of 86", which states: 86 / sap sugar content (in %) = # of gallons sap required to make 1 gal syrup.

Approximately 40 gallons.
Maple syrup is made by boiling the sap of the maple tree. True Dat
The 2009 production was 920.000 gallon of Maple Syrup.
30 to 50 gallons of sap are evaporated to make one gallon of syrup
because 40 gallons of maple sap makes only 1 gallon of maple syrup. Plus, it flucuates with the cost of fuel.
Maple syrup is more dense and would weigh more than the maple sap. It take 40 gallons of sap to make one gallon of syrup, so the syrup contains more solids.
Depending on the sweetness of the sap, it can take anywhere from 25-75 gallons of raw sap to make a gallon of finished syrup. The usual amount is about 40 gallons of sap to one gallon of syrup. Each tap into a tree will yield about 10 gallons of slightly sweet sap over a period of the 4-5 week sugaring season. This 10 gallons of sap, when boiled down, will yield approximately one quart of finished maple syrup.
