I tapped one small section this afternoon.
I will be adding more this week when I have time.
Nothing flowing today, I'm hoping to see some sap tomorrow when it gets above freezing.
I bought an older Gast vacuum pump on eBay.
I have it hooked up to my antique Bender Releaser.
I know it is early but the long distance forecast looks ok.
Can't wait to start a fire in the evaporator.
I have a Leader Half Pint and a home-made Mattatuck Madness RO.
150 taps. All on vacuum this year.
I tried the Leader 5/16 checkball taps last year.
I'm going back to 7/16 this year.
