Season syrup potential

Estimate how much syrup you might make this season from tap count, expected sap per tap, and average sugar content.

Calculator

Gallons per tap is seasonal total; 10–15 is a common range. Sap brix is typically 1.5–3%.

How it works

Total sap = taps × gallons per tap. Syrup = total sap × (sap_brix / target_brix). Sap per tap varies by region, weather, and season length; use your own averages or a rule of thumb (e.g. 10–15 gal/tap).
