I am attempting, out of sheer curiosity, to ferment maple syrup.

1. Would I need to dilute the syrup first?
2. Would kitchen yeast do the trick, or do I need special yeast?

I'd say you can but you should read up on your local laws first conserning brewing alcohol, and how much you can brew if any by law, for your own consumption.

As for the common kitchen yeast is not the best yeast for brewing if you want it to taste remotely good.

Best to use a brew you like that has active yeast cultures or go buy some brewing yeast, and read up on how to brew as well.

Hope this helps.
