Pulled my 80 taps today 3/28/09 in nw pa. Made only 11.5 gallons this year in 5 weeks:cry: . Last year made 7 gallons on 25 taps in 4 weeks :D . Took 3 hours to clean 55 five gallon buckets and lids with 2 guys. After that i think my prices might have to go up 8$ for 12 ounce glass bottle. Might have to go to $10:rolleyes:. How did you guys do???

We pulled ours today also,got a little better than 14 gal on 97 taps. Last year we made 6 gal, on 30taps and just cooked in a 16x 28 pan. It was a wierd year weatherwise wasnt it......Got everything cleaned up with my granddaughter......Hoping to get a 2x6 for next year but work dont look so great,only time will tell

It was slow here this year I just beat out last years production by a pint or 2. I added some taps this year and started earlier but none of that was any help. I hope to get out of the turkey fryer next year and get a small pan maybe a 24x36 or somewhere around there. If you see any for sale let me know.
