I let mine start to boil, leave the plug in and start gradually adding it in to keep your normal level. I like to heat mine back up on a turkey fryer so I'm adding it in hot. Add it gradually because if you just dump it in it will go backwards into next one or two bays and you wil start making syrup in them.Quote:

Must be you dont have much frost in the ground. I am way south of you and nobody, i mean nobody is getting sap anywhere around here. Frost is deep.
500 plus taps on a really steep grade and 20 gallons of sap all day, Im going t hire a bunch of kids to go squeeze the trees. LOL this is craziest weather Ive seen in quite a while .I hope it gets better,Al
Started the pump Thursday am and for the next 24 hours it trickled in. Maybe 50 gallons. Yesterday afternoon it picked up and then ran all night. Hard to tell exactly how much I have collected due to all the ice in the tanks from the last week's micro runs, but probably about 250-300. Going to boil today and likely tomorrow as well to get ahead and ready for this week. We'll be busy this week I think.
started running around 3pm yesterday afternoon, had over 2,000 gallons come in. Sap is starting to run this morning, looks like it will be a good day.
4 days 250 gal woohoo just gathered pumping off going to 're oring RO and give it a try tonight bring food and beer
Very poor run down here, not much happened here today. Disappointing. Boiled 150 gallons last night thinking I needed to get ahead of it for today not going to need to boil today, might not be able to tomorrow

FIRE IN THE HOLE !!!!!!!!!!!**
Made over 15 gal. today which brings the total to 30+ all "golden delicate". Sap ran pretty well this afternoon when the sun came out, the heaviest flow I have seen this season. Slowed way down but may run all night if no freeze. Interesting weather forecast for the 48 hours....
