We moved into our new place back in October, so we've been reading up but haven't actually purchased any materials yet.

It's on the list of things to do...

Found this thread while looking for something else, so I may as well report out:

We tapped 10 trees and ended up with about 20 gallons of sap, so reducing it down netted about 3 pints of the good stuff.

Very strange season this year, I'm told, because of the warm weather. Sap only ran for about a week or 10 days here, so I think we did pretty good for our first time.
