Sapling Evaporator
$1,399.00 Add to cart$1,299.00 when you choose pickup at checkout!
Evaporation Rate and Taps
Depending on the condition and style of use, the Sapling Evaporator can evaporate anywhere from 4-8 gallons of sap per hour. (An evaporation rate is the amount of water that boils off of your sap each hour.)
We designed the Sapling Evaporator for ourselves and our fellow hobby sugarmakers. Our recommendations of 5-50 taps are for those hobbyists who collect during the week and boil during the weekend. If you find you have a more flexible schedule and boil during the week, or if you find yourself in possession of an reverse osmosis unit, you can increase your tap count! We have many customers with flexible schedules who use the Sapling for more than 50 taps!
What makes the Sapling special?
Weighing in at 100 lbs, the Sapling can easily be moved around the yard or into and out of a garage or barn at your convenience.
Affixed with stainless steel bolts, the door of the Sapling Evaporator is larger than those found in barrel stove kits. This extra space allows for ample room to load your firebox to the max!
The legs of the Sapling are also taller than those typically found in barrel stove kits. This allows for a more comfortable position when boiling, adding sap, and loading the firebox.
The Sapling Evaporator is made from a new, unfinished steel drum that is powder-coated with high-temperature paint to resist cracking, flaking, and corrosion.Limited assembly is required to get the Sapling Evaporator up and running. We’ll send you step-by-step directions, with pictures, to help you with this process. And you can watch a video of how to assemble the Sapling Evaporator here!
Durability
We’ve been making evaporators since 2015, and we estimate our evaporators will last 10 years at the very least. With some easy maintenance, TLC, and covering the unit when not in use, we expect most Sapling owners will far exceed this estimation.
Versatility

Grilling
Converting the Sapling into a wood-fired grill is as simple as removing the Sapling Evaporator Pan and putting on the Sapling Grill Grates. Once in place, you get a grill surface that offers a large, 20” x 30” grilling space, ready to accommodate all epic, at-home culinary adventures. An expansive grilling space to make food for large groups or even meal prepping! We’ve fit 14 pounds of chicken for grilling, a 15-pound turkey, 40 sausages (veggie or meat)… you get the picture.
You can use firewood, charcoal, or a combination of both as fuel. Or throw in some wood chips to elevate your grilling game.

Smoking
To convert your Sapling to a smoker, you’ll add the following to your Sapling:
Convert to a smoker by adding the newly redesigned Sapling Grill Lid! With a pin hinge system, the Sapling Grill Lid is easy to pop on and off of your Sapling. The Efficiency Baffle allows you to deflect the heat from the wood fire in the bottom of the Sapling away from your food source. Then close the Sapling Damper (installed in the Sapling Stack Pipe) to keep the smoke in and around your food. You can use wood, charcoal, wood chips, or a combination of the three to smoke your meats and veggies on your sapling
