Hi all, going to try making my own syrup this year, and have a basic question. I have these spouts on order: http://www.bascommaple.com/store/index.php?cat=32

What size of tubing would I to attach to these? I plan on running them to 5 gallon buckets on the ground. Where is a good site that I can order it from?

Plan on doing about 15 taps this year to see how it goes, and if we like it.

Thanks.

That page brings up a whole page in a catolog. We need to know which one you actually ordered. But if they are tubeing spouts they are all the same size tubeing anyways. 5/16. Thats the only size they make. It's the size of the hole in the tree that changes with different spouts. Either 7/16 or 19/64s.

Sorry about that, the ones I ordered were the last two on the page.

5/16 is what you need.
