That is a sweet little evaporator. Man, you are going to love boiling on that and be inside, life will be good for 2020!!! Congrats.
All is Good. What a beaut of a day!
We are getting close to the sugarin season and we piped in the smoke stack, My father in law helped me with the bricking and we put in a head tank and stand. Now sometime this month we'll boil some water and see what happens!

That last picture from the open doors is an absolutely gorgeous view.
I tapped a few trees yesterday to see if any sap will start moving...
Today was the first boil. We boiled up to 12 gallons an hour. We collected 55 or so gallons the last few days and now have sweetened the pans. What a great start to the season. We had 3 generations working on the homestead today!

After 3 boils we have over 2.5 gallons of syrup... I hope the season lasts another couple of weeks. I tested my tress and got sugar % from 2-4% through out. I did get a 3% reading in the tank! So that is good.
