By heating the syrup you have given each individual particle inside it more kinetic energy to move around. The more they move around the more free they are to do so and this means they can slip over one another more easily hence why the viscosity decreases.
Yes..
Yes..
you boil water and stir in sugar until it is dissolved
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? :-)
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
Yes, syrup can boil below 100 degrees Celsius because the boiling point of a liquid depends on its composition and atmospheric pressure. Syrup, which is a concentrated sugar solution, can reach its boiling point at a temperature lower than 100 degrees Celsius.
No, you should not boil maple syrup past 219 degrees Fahrenheit. At this temperature, maple syrup reaches its optimal density and sugar concentration for syrup production. Boiling it beyond this point can lead to crystallization and result in candy-like consistency instead of a pourable syrup. It's important to monitor the temperature closely to achieve the desired quality.
boil it then put it on a frozen sheet of ice. wait to cool
water vapor is it really ...
Maple Syrup is more diluted than maple sap.
40 cups of maple tree sap will boil down to 1 cup of maple syrup.
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.
