Kindle Review: GREAT Overview of the Basics of Making Maple Syrup with Pictures,
By CarsPlants (Maine) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Making Maple Syrup: Storey's Country Wisdom Bulletin A-51 (Kindle Edition)
Now that we have moved to Maine, I thought that it might be nice to know more about what is right in our back yard. And although I don't spend much on Kindle content, I was so in the mood to read up on this that I sprang for the couple of dollars.I thoroughly enjoyed this easy-to-read treatment of all of the basics you need to know in order to make maple syrup. Three methods are explained, based on quantity: (1.) if you are tapping a couple of trees to make a couple of quarts, (2.) you will be tapping a dozen trees to tap and wish to make 5-10 gallons of syrup, and (3.) those who wish to be small commercial producers. As this book is called "a beginners guide" you wouldn't expect to find material on reverse osmosis or even a lot of the finer details about commercial methods, like the fact that you have to put different species of maples on different tubing systems because their timing will be different. As the small commercial producer will likely be investing in a "sugar bush" (some land with maple trees) I would hope that in that case you would plan to spend some more on a more thorough treatment of maple sugaring rather than this brief one. But it IS worth that couple of dollars. The text and editing were particularly nice and Lo and Behold there were Pictures on my Kindle. I can't say whether all of them were there from the booklet, but it was sure nice! Update: the particular Kindle edition I read and reviewed is "currently unavailable" so the version you are buying may differ. Hopefully it is even better!

Sugar Time,

This review is from: Making Maple Syrup: Storey's Country Wisdom Bulletin A-51 (Paperback)
A fine how-to book on the making of maple syrup. Mr.Perrin covers several different approaches to the production of syrup. If you have no experience in making maple syrup at home and would like to, then this is the book for you. I learned alot the first time I read it and even more the second time. Good stuff to know.

This review is from: Making Maple Syrup: Storey's Country Wisdom Bulletin A-51 (Paperback)
This book is packed with a LOT of information about Making Maple Syrup, and although it's not an encyclopedia on the subject, I learned a lot more than I ever expected, from a book that is small, and priced so reasonably.
YOU WILL LEARN ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW, TO ACTUALLY MAKE MAPLE SYRUP ON YOUR OWN, and all about what items are needed, and different methods you can use. I didn't know a thing about making Syrup, and I do now, that says it all.
