Finally fired up the evaporator. I cleaned the pan Friday and noticed a small pinhole leak around the draw off valve Saturday morning. Decided to try and do a quick fix. Long story short –*my neighbor helped me fix the valve and also the corner seam (which I had ruined while "fixing" the valve).
I know a lot more about soldering stainless steel now.
Hope to sweeten the pans tonight and boil the next few nights. About 120 gallons of sap from 32 buckets and another 30-50 to collect tomorrow.
