Abstract. Yields of sugar maple sap collected from three plastic pipeline systems by gravity, vacuum pump, and a vacuum pump with a transfer tank were compared during 2 years in northern Vermont.The transfer system yielded 27 percent more sap one year and 17 percent more the next year.Higher vacuum levels at the tapholes were observed in the transfer system.he transfer system yielded 27 percent more sap one year and 17 percent more the next year. Higher vacuum levels at the tapholes were observed in the transfer system.
The sap either drips into a bucket or flows down a special tube to a holding tank. Drop after drop collect until there are gallons upon gallons of sap. Many gallons of sap are needed to make just one gallon of maple syrup. It can range from 35-50 gallons of sap, depending on how much maple sugar there is in the sap.All maple syrup has the same amount of maple sugar, but the maple flavor can be different as we shall learn.The sap is collected into a large holding tank and from there is fed into the sugar house (the place where the magic happens!).he sap either drips into a bucket or flows down a special tube to a holding tank.
