That's interesting. I didn't know there was such an uptick in backyarding due to the pandemic. I had to chuckle at the "sanity saving measure". It's true no doubt, but wait until they all start adding taps. Then it will be "insanity inducing"! Lol. Great article. Thanks for sharing it.

My surprise was the "resin" that gets all over the walls. It seems writers want to use a different term for things just to be original. Isn't the so called "resin" just sugar?

I don't know Dave but can you imagine all the new people boiling inside their homes and all that steam and what must have happened.

Every one of my customers that makes a few Litres of their own still buys from me because our syrup is cheaper when you factor in the equipment and fuel costs - plus repainting the kitchen!
