We put in our maple taps in this weekend. I mentioned before I got the supplies from a friend that was no longer needing them. We have quite a few maples but I only put in 4 taps. Since it is only my first year doing this I didn't want to get over my head and be drowning in maple sap.
This first part was very simple. Find a maple tree. Drill a hole on the south- south east side. Tap in the tap with a hammer and hang a bag. One bag has about a quart of sap the other three are still empty. Hopefully we get more as the days warm up.
