I got 3000 gallons of sap yesterday. This morning it has already started to run at 9:45am. Should be a good day for all of us.

I got 1500 gallons off 1000 taps yesterday / last night. Sap is going now--headed home to make some surp!!
Wow. Ran the pump all day yesterday and not a drop here. Never got above 31 with a stiff north wind. Things will be different today however....
Just shut the incenerator down. Collected just under 11000 gallons today. Made 4 barrels and concentrating the rest of it right now. Started at dark amber but came back half way through it tonight to med.
12000 gallon in. After blowing the fuse on a nearby transformer and GMP having to send a truck to fix, managed to make 3 drums of medium. Concentrating through the night. Trees still producing 300/hr. @ 2am. Was hoping for a freeze.
Got 6900 gallons yesterday. Sap ran all night at 200GPH. Sap testing 2%. Never froze last night and the wind is now picking up. Still should be pretty good today.Vacuum playing tricks on me and jumping 2-3 inches. Dr.Tim said it was due to tree gases and micro leaks. Lets hope more tree gas because I don't want to go in the knee deep snow looking for leaks.

Yesterday was an epic sap run day.. Let today be another one. Vac ran all night going to check it now
Gal a tap yesterday collected 15000 gal made 6 gal medium robust still have some to boil one pass 2.4 to 4.8/4.9 second pass takes it to 8.1. Up around 35 gal now
You might be surprised. Froze at my house. Got done boiling at Scott's about midnight, filled the wood boiler and it was sitting at 32. Woke up at 6 and there was ice on the mud. I bet it froze in Rupert.Quote:
