anyone have some pointers to a table of boiling point vs. sugar content? (I use a thermometer, just want to get a better idea of what the degrees brix is for various temperature rises above nominal H2O boiling point, for curiosity's sake not accuracy)

Some other good info in this sheet, but the table you are looking for is right at the start

Some other good info in this sheet, but the table you are looking for is right at the startthanks -- that's exactly the type of info I want, but I also wanted to get it at lower concentrations. Basically to get a better idea of how far I am along when the boiling point is up 1 degree, 2 degrees, 3 degrees etc.

this (http://www.sugartech.co.za/bpe/index.php) seems to sort of have the info I'm looking for, for sugar solutions; do the other solids in maple sap do much?
