ifounditunderthere
Didn't realize how much gas went into my pancakes...
jamesCartoonBaron
27m^3 of natural gas over 17hrs took 33gal down to 10, tomorrow I’ll keep going and take it down to 1gal of syrup.

Why do you want it gone?
MisterRichard
It's maple sap. Very watery right out the tree
jamesCartoonBaron
You start at 2% sugar and boil until 30%, usually boiling away 97% of it. 30gal of sap makes 1 gal of syrup.
Baltzdelirium
Making all that maple.
MrKnowItAll1903
Can you boil in a vacuum? That will lower the boil temp and speed the process.
Baltzdelirium
No idea
SilentSlacker
Didn't think it was so liquidy before processing.
Baltzdelirium
It varies but as it boils you know things get more liquid ish.
SilentSlacker
Suppose so. Just never boiled anything thicker than some soup.
Baltzdelirium
Haha fair. If you do... Do it outside. The sap will coat every surface if you do it inside.

I tried boiling water for an hour to make it more concentrated, but I didn't notice a change in taste or texture. Maybe I had a bad recipe.

Or it was just stale water.
CiaranMcHale
I bought it from an organic shop, so I just assumed it was fresh.

You have to buy artisan water from gwyneth paltrow to get the right taste and texture.
CiaranMcHale
Do you think boiling the water might destroy its homeopathic benefits?

How long 'til the crawfish are ready, honey?
DeviatedPrevert
check the tag, he is making maple syrup
speakeasiez
Doesn't answer the question
DeviatedPrevert
ok, well since he is not cooking crawfish, the answer is it will be infinity hours till they are ready, honey
jamesCartoonBaron
I might bbq some tomorrow!
speakeasiez
wait, bbq? you lost me. I'm sure it will still be delicious, because crawfish, but how does one bbq them?
jamesCartoonBaron
I lie, it’ll be shrimp, as I don’t have crawfish in my freezer, but I regularly grill raw shrimp on the bbq.
speakeasiez
that sounds delicious!
