Notes:
Six types of containes for maple syrup were evaluated under three controlled temperatures at four storage intervals. The contenents of each container were analyzed for optical density (color), density, pH, and flavor. If a good quality U.S. grade AA maple syrup, properly hotpacked, is stored no longer than 6 months in the retail container at a temperature of 24°C, quality, as measured by color, density, pH, and flavor, will be maintained in the containers we evaluated. However, in some plastic containers, syrup stored for 9 and 12 months at 24° and 30°C, darkened enough to drop one grade level with a significant deterioration of flavor in one of the containers.
