Yes..
Maple Syrup is more diluted than maple sap.
If you are referring to maple sap and syrup, they are not the same, you must boil 40 gallons of maple sap to make one gallon of maple syrup
40 cups of maple tree sap will boil down to 1 cup of maple syrup.
Yes, it can be done, but remember to use a big enough pot. If you want one pint of syrup, you have to boil down about 5 gallons of sap. Think about how long your stove would take to boil 5 gallons of water down to one pint, and you've got the idea. Got a big pot? :-)
You only need maple syrup to make maple butter and maybe 1/4 teaspoon of butter or vegetable oil to help prevent the foaming. Boil up your maple syrup to 235- 236 degrees and remove the pan as soon as you hit the spot. Cold down the pan in cold water, let it still until all the heat is removed. Stir the maple syrup with a wooden spoon ( or an electric mixer ) for quite a while, it can take between 15 to 30 minutes until the maple syrup loose its glossy look. 2 cup of maple syrup makes 1 cup of maple cream.

Yes, because Farmers tap the maple trees in spring for sap to make famous Vermont maple syrup. Obviously...
water vapor is it really ...
it doesnt matter as long as you can get the sap in the tree. i prefer soft but dont drill in too much or your suiciding a tree and you get sap. you boil the sap and make it into syrup.
The method of making maple syrup is; You have to put a tube into a maple tree,and then the syrup comes out from that tube.You then need to boil it in a large,heated bowl for the water to evaporate and the sugar to stay put, Hope this helped! :)
Maple syrup is sometimes boiled down further to make maple sugar, a hard candy usually sold in pressed blocks, and maple taffy.
Mold on maple syrup is a very common and easily fixed problem. Syrup will mold no matter how you store it - freezing and refrigerating will postpone it but you might find mold anyway. First, skim as much mold off the top of the syrup as you can. then, pour the syrup into a saucepan and slowly bring to *just* a boil. turn it off and let it cool without disturbing it for a few minutes, then skim the surface again. you can repeat this if there is a lot of mold floating around, or if the surface mold got mixed into the syrup. Just remember to let it cool and then heat slowly WITHOUT STIRRING. and dont let it boil, that will thicken it up and make it prone to crystallizing (you'll get maple sugar instead of maple syrup) Sterilize the container the syrup was originally in and pour the cooled syrup back in.
