You would need to have a decent fire, with free firewood, to make it
cost-effective. Remember that it takes 40 volumes of sap to make one
volume of syrup. Try boiling down a medium-sized saucepan of sap (around
2 litres) to make a quarter cup (around 50 ml) on a stove, and see how
much gas you use.
