Fabricating and mounting the doors.59145915591659175918

Here is the beginning of the arch build. I cut off the rear part of the spreader and removed the internal conveyor parts. Started fabricating the door frame.5912

Just ordered up my mig welder so I can start building my new evaporator. Pics will be coming. Started out tapping 10 trees and now I got the FEVER. I love this stuff.

Has anyone made a reverse osmosis machine that works? Would like to make one since it costs an arm and leg to buy one. Please provide instructions and knowledge of building this machine.

Started boiling tonight. Worried that sap was going to go bad, but tastes ok and looks clear. Collected 106 gallons of sap from 55 bagged trees.

I got a real good nights rest last night.
I have way too many taps.
I'm sick of pancakes and syrup.

I would like more information on where to find a 20 gallon coffee maker. Attach pictures if you can and info on where to find one.

Im up here in Gurney,WI Jeff. I have a neighbor and daughter that will help me collect and my wife can keep the sap boiling.

When you boil, do you fill the pan once and boil it down to syrup or...

The reason I asked about the refractometer is that I could possible test a tree to see the percentage of sugar. The more I think about it why does one need to test the sap. Just check the syrup as...

Would you advice using a hydrometer or refractormeter. I found a refractormeter for $180.00 that can be used for both sap and hot syrup.

I have always wanted to make maple syrup, but have never taken the time to start this adventure. I have had this equipment for many years: ( 2- 30"x33" SS pans, 1- 2'x3' SS pan, and a small 2'x3'...
