Just collected today and fired up evaporator for a 80gal run,just came in at 9 pm started at 12 on boil,broke it down to 12 gal for the night,finish Monday night and add what happens tomorrow! Did a lot of work on other equipment while tending,sap seems to be about 1.2 to 1.5 that's good for me never gets to high!
