Can you make maple syrup in a pressure cooker?
It is twice as energy-efficient as the Crock-Pot, but not as efficient as the gas stovetop. While it is possible to finish the syrup in the Instant Pot using the sauté mode, we don’t recommend. You risk ruining your Instant Pot if you get distracted for a few minutes and let it boil beyond syrup.

Can I boil maple sap indoors?
It is best to boil down most of the sap outdoors over an open fire rather than indoors in the kitchen because such a tremendous amount of steam is produced during evaporation — it can literally peel wallpaper off a kitchen wall.
Can you make maple syrup in your kitchen?
You simply boil the sap until enough water is removed and you are left with pure maple syrup. This process generates a lot of steam so it may be worth doing it outside if you can because your kitchen can quickly fill with steam. Light your stove or turn it on and let your sap boil away.
How many gallons of sap does it take to make maple syrup?
40 gallons
Of all the maples, the highest concentration of sugar is found in the sap of the sugar maple. Generally the ratio of sap to syrup for the sugar maple is 40 to 1 (40 gallons of sap yields one gallon of syrup).
How do you know when sap is done boiling?
Boil it as soon as you can. Finished maple syrup will be 7°F above the temperature of boiling water at your elevation. Your syrup or candy thermometer will tell you this. If you have a larger operation you may get a syrup hydrometer and testing cup which will tell you when the syrup is done.
How long does it take to boil 10 gallons of maple sap?
Boiling 10 gallons of sap down to 1/2 gallon took 3 hours (using 3 pans). We brought the almost-syrup into the house and spent another 20 minutes finishing it on the stove. And then we licked every spoon, bowl and pan that had any speck of maple syrup on it.
