The Story Begins With Research

Every maple season tells a story before the first tap starts running.

Weather. Freeze-thaw cycles. Sap pressure. Production. Years of observation. MapleSAP exists to understand that story early enough to matter.

Feature Stories

The science stories behind the run.

The science behind these stories is explained in MapleSAP Lab. Start with why sap runs.

Research Feature

Understanding Freeze-Thaw Cycles

Why pressure swings, bark temperature, and recovery windows matter before the first line opens.

Field Notes

Producer observations, written like a field notebook.

Sample notes for illustration only. These are not real observations.

Sample note / illustration

Strong afternoon run observed.

Overnight freeze held long enough for a fast afternoon recovery. Lines opened after the first hour above zero.

Sample note / illustration

South-facing lines warmed early.

Exposure pulled the run forward two hours ahead of the general forecast window.

Sample note / illustration

Snowpack delayed the morning.

Cold held in the low sections, but ridge lines recovered quickly once sun reached the canopy.

MapleSAP App

Carry the outlook into the sugarbush.

The MapleSAP app is in development, with launch planned for February 17, 2027 (a target, not a guarantee). It is being built to turn local forecast conditions into a daily read on sap-flow potential for your sugar bush.

Meet the Flow.

The Sap Score combines forecast conditions into a quick read on sap-flow potential. Descriptions from the app in development; not a live reading.

Confidence

Season status and flow context: snowpack, soil thaw and recent streaks.

Predictability

Forecast conditions: freeze-thaw, sun, solar strength and temperature swing.

Intensity

Flow strength: temperature swing, sun, streak momentum and soil moisture.

Sap Score

A weighted quick read of expected sap-flow potential for the day.

“Read the Rhythm”: see how freeze, thaw and pressure changes shape the flow. Illustration only.
