Sludge, smootz, and scum

Hey all,

Here are some pics of my first boil.
Just curious is this is normal.

All reds, RO'ed and boiled fresh.

Any thoughts on if this is normal?

I tap over 95% reds and I could send you almost identical pics once I have my first boil.

Did you throw out the front-end flow of yuck from the first run?

Think you're confusing sap with moonshine
:lol:
Had to say it

I've boiled all sugars, and more recently about 50/50 sugars and Reds. The scum you got in the filter looks quite normal, I can't make out what the other 2 pictures are.

Looks pretty normal to me
