got ya a bit north west of me. Weather probably been the same, not sure why my taps stopped flowing this week. Been weird weather.

Wow that a good return on 50 taps.
Where abouts are you? I'm hoping my taps will start running again this week its been double digit weather here all week amd warm nights so no sap.

Getting my boiling caught up. Trees haven't produced for a few days.
Maybe get one more run this week with the colder nights, how is everyone else doing lately?

Glad to hear you're sapping this year. You're right it is a sickness 🤣

Just bottled a few litres and the filtering part is the most frustrating aspect.
I filter off my pre finish boil. Then once I hit 215-216 degrees I filter it again.
When I hit 219 for a few...

Boiled about 20G today. Trees not running after that cold snap. Not liking the looks of the weather. Hoping we'll get another week or two of runs, I fear early buds coming.

Letting a few trees chill this year. Put in 21 taps yesterday pulled 39L sap this morning ing and buckets almost 3/4 full again today.

Prep time down here probably could tapped this week but cold snap next week again.
I'll probably get mine in end couple weeks. Need to replace my chimney this year as she's rotted out. Thinking of...

Glad to see ya back Galena. I'm super busy this year also but going to go at er again this year. Had a great year last year.

Got caught up on last week's batch dark syrup this batch have 40G in storage. Pulled most of my taps yesterday. Trees budding here and Mega rain and ice storm here today. Will finish off what I have...

Good day to boil today taps slow yesterday. Have 60G sap to catch up on. Thinking maybe one more week for my season. Hope everyone is doing well

Interesting I've done three batches and mine also very sugary this year I don't mind though just extra filtering work syrup is tasty

Bottled about 4L a very sweet and sugary first batch. Weather change is annoying as it was suppose to be good this week. Maybe it'll change back 🤔

Boiling today and tomorrow, taps get through ok next weekend we should be good to go

Same hoping taps will run again after the freeze only did half my trees so my have to move some

Back for a new season took last year off as I hurt my back. Put up 18 buckets Monday yielded a bit over 20 gallons today is miserable weather but looks okay for the next 5. Not liking the end of the...

Agree with ya there, I'll be garden prepping. Got all my seeds delivered this week. So will be staring indoors once sap is done. I expect this will be the last run.

Rainy crappy day today. Soooo bottle day.
Net 1.85gallons of syrup.
Happy with the return.
My initial boil down returned a nice golden syrup (yet cloudy) my second boil down from the last two...

Buckets all about quarter full but cloudy yellow looking. Dumped em. I'm trying to finish off my storage (20g) but it's got a bit of a cloud look to it. Annoying... Smells fine on the stove.... Gonna...

Oh I'm grateful for the slow down. Getting caught up. Should be close to even tomorrow. Hardly any sap ran today. Hoping the trees are keeping the sap sweet througn this heat wave.....

I certainly hope the season isn't over.
I've got about 60 gallons stored. I'll boil it off by Thurs. But will be interested to see how the trees react the next couple of days. Tonight is the last...

Good day here yesterday boiled about 15 gallons and then collected about 10 see the smorning on a quick scan my buckets are all half full so may not get head of the sap just yet. Will boiled late...

Buck chaps. Awesome!!
Full boil on here today have 40 gallons collected this week. Forecast doesn't look good unless we can get some colder nights.

Yes syrup. Tired, long weekend lol
I'll see how it settles up. May boil it up again. Have everything cleaned up so annoying to go at it again today.

Bottled up 3L of sap and made some candy for the first time this morning.

Sap is nice golden color, but it's a little bit on the watery side, I prefer it thicker.
I wonder if I didn't boil it...
