Not sure if it was a single lift or a combination. Might have been per lift. He was throwing around higher numbers so it might have been per lift.
My UV light went out a few hours ago. Will have to wait another 12 hours or so for it to come back on. (ok, I've beat that to death)

...One other thing while i was talking to Matt the other night.
As seen in the latest Leader catalog and Matt's letter, he made 940 gallons of syrup last year, and about 700 of that was fancy from 5000 taps.
So what, you say? :?
(He only drains his tubing every year, doesn't clean it with one of those fancy washers. 8O :P :P )
What say you, Kevin?
I should add that he does let some sap run on the ground at the beginning of the season.

One of secrets, as you mentioned, is that he boils sap the day it comes in if possible. That kills those boogies alot faster without letting them grow. Does create a hectic season if it just runs a little at a time.
I imagine your setup will be better if you have to let the sap sit for a number of days before boiling.
For Pete's sake, Kevin, learn the home row (aka touch typing). :D :D Can't believe you hunt and peck all these long posts. 8O 8O

Take Care and see you in a week or so. Thanks for all the info.

Wow, you're not as old as I thought! :wink: I only got you by a few years.
You grab the posts so quick that you don't give me a chance to "polish" things up. I'm not trying to slip something by you, honestly.
Do you get a notification when someone responds or are you on this thing constantly?
Of course, maybe if I hunt and peck, my fingers wouldn't get ahead of my brain and I wouldn't have to do corrections after the fact.
