I have 96 taps, missed two and a half weeks due to business trips, and still have boiled 1,000 gallons of sap. Seems like a bumper crop this year, but I'm still fairly new at it - it's my 4th year. I am getting pretty tired, I've boiled for four days straight. I'll be back out there as soon as it quits raining, if it does. My 5-gallon buckets (with two-three taps apiece) are surely overflowing since I haven't run them since yesterday around 1pm.
This will probably be my last day boiling, as business needs will take over again. I am not complaining though. It's been my best year by far.
