How to Tap and Make Maple Syrup What Trees Can be Tapped Maple syrup can be made from any species of maple tree. Trees that can be tapped include: sugar, black, red and silver maple and box elder trees. 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).
The Rule of 86. How many gallons of sap does it take to make one gallon of maple syrup? Using the Rule of 86, you can figure that the number of gallons of sap you need to produce one gallon of syrup is equal to 86 gallons divided by the percent of sugar in the sap. So if you start with sap that is 2% sugar, you would need to evaporate 43 gallons of water (86 gallons / 2% = 43 gallons) to make one gallon of syrup.
