A simple device for collecting birch sap

Hello, in this article I want to share with you a simple device for collecting birch sap. Spring is in the yard, and it's time to go to the forest, or a birch grove for a wonderful drink, birch sap. This type of juice is very useful, because it carries all the useful substances for tree growth, it is also indispensable for a person in the fight against spring vitamin deficiency. From ancient times, our ancestors valued and respected birch, and birch sap, even deified. Birch is a very beautiful tree, a lot of poems have been written about it, and the whole story is very closely connected with this tree.

So, in order not to harm our beautiful birch tree during the selection of juice, I do the following, prepare a tube or cambric from a wire with a diameter of 6 mm in advance, a screwdriver with a drill for 6 mm, a container for collecting juice, and a rope for attaching. Make a hole at the base of the barrel, insert the tube into the hole made and collect the juice))).
Tools: screwdriver with a 6 mm drill, cambric 6 mm, juice collecting container, rope.

And so first you need to find a suitable middle-aged birch, in no case not young it can be destroyed.

So we selected a birch, we prepare tools.

We take a cordless drill, and we make only one hole, to a depth of the drill floor.

Then I insert cambric into the hole.

I put a container for collecting juice.

And to be sure, I tie it with a rope to a birch, I also carry out a masking of the container, twigs, and leaves, from unwanted friends of freebie lovers.

That's the whole simple way, the most important thing in it we do not cause significant harm to the birch. After the deadline for collecting juice, this hole is simply clogged with a small wooden chopper, and the tree feels great.

And I do okroshka not TANNE. If sour, dilute with water and kefir.

In our country this is called a "cold". Boiled beets, cucumbers, seasonings, etc. But at the base - kefir, or yogurt, diluted with water. And the sour cream is then put, as in cabbage soup. Thick, real.

Yes, they do it on water too. Then sour cream or kefir, mayonnaise. And we do not on water but on birch sap (kvass from it). Cool thing turns out.

It will be necessary to try to leave it in the pantry for storage, but it seems to me warm there. But I’ll try anyway. Thank you.

Not ... g. We don’t have any hamburgers. We have pancakes.

I heard about okroshka. This is something like our cold store - the first dish that is not cooked :-). (Correct?) Only the basis of the cold store is yogurt, or kefir mixed with water and seasonings, while okroshka has kvass. Right?
I have never tried it, really.
And in the cellar I only store potatoes and beets. I read that before everything was stored there when there were no large refrigerators :-) Kvass is in the pantry. There is also a large shelving for canned food. My wife always strives to set up a cannery at home :-) One can always close 50 gherkins, but not even three-liter ones :-) Besides tomatoes, mushrooms, salads, stewed fruits, preserves ... and that’s a whole big shelving ..
And the cellar in my milk. And in winter we live in an apartment. The house is only in the summer, when canned food is not needed ...

The climate is different, it’s true, only recently it has become warmer and the snow has melted.
And you really don’t know about okroshka, or are you just kidding)))))

I don’t put a lot of juice so 10 liters a day is quite normal, it would be possible to stock up, of course, if there was a cellar. And without a cellar is not life at all))))

And about the usefulness of kvask - I strongly doubt it ... Any fermentation is no longer completely beneficial for the kidneys ... It is not more useful than beer ...: wink:

Today? ... Our juice stopped flowing two weeks ago !! There are already leaves on birches! What juice already? )))) Yes ... the climate is different .. In childhood, I remember, in the spring break, they always brought juice. But on April 1 they went to school! By this time, he usually does not flow anymore ... And today is the 12th already ...
And the "two fives" is ten liters? Why is it so? When we set the boys, we each took ten, so that a couple of tens of liters a day. It flows for a week, but it’s necessary to prepare a couple of hundred liters ...

Dmitrij, So this is not done for "health", but for taste))). Well ... and, a little for the health of the kidneys - a diuretic, after all)))
"But by the way, kvass from such juice to okroshka is a thing altogether)) Didn’t you try? A sharp, chilly, class." - what are you talking about?

Reply To quote A complaint
Yes, today I went to remove the juices))) two fives, left a little drink, and the rest for kvass)))).Noble kvass is obtained and stored for a long time on the balcony, easy to prepare, useful to the body.

yes ... drinking citric acid is generally very "good" for health. And most useful elements kill canning. We never do this. Well at my opinion.


But by the way, kvass from such juice into okroshka is generally a thing)) Have you tried it? Sharp, chilly, class.

Liters 100-120 we always close "classically". With citric acid and sugar in jars. Somehow we got used to that in the kitchen there is always a can of birch sap ... Instead of water ...
Well, the rest I pour on the "one and a half" on kvass. As soon as I pour a little sugar there and throw a few raisins into each bottle. So that the bottle does not explode, it must not be placed, but placed on its side. Standing sometimes explode, while lying still not once. Then a highly carbonated drink is obtained. When you open the bottle - the smell ... is not very pleasant))). But kvass itself is delicious… But again ... women don’t really like it, and men praise the polls! I don’t know one that he didn’t like such kvass! ))))

And also maple juice is delicious ... in my childhood, behind the garden, there was a whole plantation of maples, so we constantly put the juice. He is very sweet.

"Dmitrij (wrote Today, 14:56)
yes you are generally there europeans judging by your stories winked "

Yes ... the laws in Belarus in our country are quite European .... That's just the African salary ...)))))))

Yes, you are generally Europeans there judging by your stories: winked:

What are you doing with juice? Kvass do? We pour it into bottles and there is candy in each bottle (barberry, duchesse ..). Well, caramel is shorter without filling. The bottle is then inflated heavily (it sometimes explodes, but rarely). It turns out a very tasty thing, much cooler than sparkling water.
But if you drink a lot ... you can even get a little drunk))

There are still dried fruits thrown, but I do not like. You can sugar instead of sweets, but that’s not right, there will be no such taste.

And I always did not make tubes, but grooves from cans. The groove in the shallow bark was hammered, and a deep hole was already drilled above it. And under it - a three-liter jar, because in my childhood and youth there were no plastic bottles ....)))
And now, by the way, it’s easier to buy juice from us in forestry. In the season, all forestries plant plantations in birch forests. You drop by, you pour it into your own container, and on the road you pay a penny for the amount that you poured. They give you a check.
And without it, if they stop on the highway and find juice in the car (and stand in the season and selectively brake), you will pay a large fine! Because to collect juice you need to get a license and pay an environmental fee! Otherwise, it is punished as poaching!
So, I drove into a forestry a couple of weeks ago, took 200 liters, and "do not buzz"))))

no, 100 years ago there were no such bottles and a screwdriver: wink: So this is author's, unique!

But in general, so ... then I always make tubules from elderberry. Free, original and environmentally friendly. Enough for two seasons :)
