Almost Self-Reliant
So, thinking about making birch syrup, or at least boiling sap down a good bit to make some yummy drinks, I was wondering, can I use a copper kettle to cook it over a "camp" fire? We have a wood furnace and a fireplace, but no woodstove, so I'm going to see if I can get the bf to buy a copper kettle for me so that I can cook it more efficiently outside. He had said about hooking up an electric stove out on the porch for all of the "yucky" stuff (boiling traps, skulls, etc), but I'd rather use a fire and kettle if possible.
