Mr Ploop Observation
Today, I learned how to set up an Evaporator for boiling sap from a sugar maple, red maple, and a silver maple to turn the sap into syrup. When Mr. Ploof said that today we are going to set up the evaporator, I thought he wanted to evaporate some rainwater. I found the evaporator and some equipment in the storage closet where Ploof hides all his treasures. The evaporator was under a bunch of junk and a fantastic weed whipper. First, we had to move the evaporator from the closet, into the right place under a giant chimney. On the evaporator is the boiling pan and the finishing pan. Under the evaporator is an insulation made by N.A.S.A that is used in space ships and satellites to allow the heat to stay inside the insulation, but does not show any signs of heat. Mr. Ploof was then preaching about how all the pans, pails, and jars. The cleaning process is to be washed in hot water using no soap, dried, then washed and dried again. This allows for no dust and bacteria to get in the syrup, which will make it dirty. We …show more content…

This batch however seemed kind of odd, because no matter what did, the bubbles of the boiling sap kept on rising all the way to the peak of the pan. Everyone was running all over the place. Some started to hold down the bubbles as much as they could, while others started to pray to God because they thought this was going to be the end. Then, out of nowhere Ploof had a secret magical, but unusual liquid that made the bubbles go down. We were all so relieved and curious what was that magic liquid, but no matter how many times we tried to ask him what it was, he would not tell us. This was the next mission we had to achieve, to find out what that magical liquid was and what power did it contain

We were running around like chickens with our heads cut off because if we didn’t get that alcohol to the perfect temperature, nothing would work out right. Once we got the alcohol perfectly chilled, we mixed it with the sweet smelling strawberries, and our concoction was complete. But we still screwed up.
