Used 2 1/2 gallons of roaring springs bottled water. All other water used is fresh maple water from tapped trees. The hydrometer reading of the maple water before adding to mash and sparge was 1.012. This is early season sap so it is about 25 gallon to make 1 gallon maple syrup. The sap gets weaker later in the spring.

Notes

This was ment to be an experiment being there is no real way of knowing maple sap chemistry. I live in central pa so we have a lot of lime stone spring water added to melting snow runoff.
