All done hear in Campton last boil tonight , never had a year without very dark syrup until this one . Better than last year syrup totals wise but not by too much .

Wow is anyone else have a horrible time trying to filter syrup this year the sand is crazy New papers filter in press a few gallons and it plugs up .

Looking for feedback on sealing the qt D&G tin containers . I’ve always used plastic or glass . I’m assuming it’s the same as the plastic jugs . They cap has no tamper type of seal I’m wondering if...

Thankyou Gentleman . Very good answers exactly what I was looking for.

Anyone clean last year's taps with success and reuse without premature tap hole closer.

Turning off vacuum this afternoon . Looks like it’s done . End with very clear sap and dark syrup . A strange year indeed.

Sap ran really well yesterday and as of this morning hasn’t stopped.

Sugar is lucky to be 1.5. I think a week for us about right on the money .

Best run of the season today for us . Keeping at it .

Good luck in the future .

Interesting year temps down than way up . Ran for 3 days without a freeze . Thought I would find a full tank of sap yesterday morning as I can watch pump house with my cameras but outside...

I Was wondering about Russ myself always enjoy fallowing his thread . He’s always about a week ahead of me for starting and finishing the season .

Your right buckeye gold I never did pay myself .

I assume the information Ive heard that packers are paying 1.70 a pound for bulk is syrup is correct. This makes me seriously wonder about the profitability of making syrup.for some . Of course...

So far 2019 in my area has Ben kind of a dud. Lots of snow still in the woods very marginal flow of sap . The warm up shut it off completely. Not sure what to make of this season other than it’s the...

No big runs at white Mt maples in Campton . Closing in on the second latest start in 15 Years for us . Hope the trees wake up soon . Nothing really to talk about yet very modest flow of sap .

Not so good so Far on my end have yet to boil with a ton of work completed and nothing to show for it . I do have some sap but really want enough to rinse membrane and sweetened pan . Spent the warm...

I had one year not to long ago the first boil was March 30th . The season was 3 weeks long to the day . That won’t happen this year . Goodluck . All

Completed tapping yasterday7days on snowshoes. Now for fixing the line issues than fire up the pump next week looks good.

15 day forecast looks cold . Still lots to do so that’s ok .

Taped in the snow all day today up to about 1500 taps in .

Started the process today tapped about 500 . On snow shoes in my area of campton lots of snow in the woods . Shooting for 700 taps tomorrow .

Most likely starting to tap this weekend . Using leader check valves . Think I should be ok no warm up in sight but better a bit early than late .

Just thought I’d start a thread looking for overall updates about tapping status and overall talk for us NH guys .

Sugarmaker High vac , around 4 k taps, good slope. Thanks
