Sounds good, thx
From upcoming season.
Sorry for the delay in my reply.
I know SBS very well and have purchased from them in years past. I'm looking to buy directly from the producer, as they do, in order to keep my costs down. Thanks for the suggestion, though. SBS...
Thanks. The setup with the tanks back there works great although if you have any sleep hills like we do, make sure to place a strap/tie-down behind the tanks securing them to the gator. Otherwise...
Lost our supplier last year and we typically purchase 150-200 gallons, perhaps more this year.
Location in SE Michigan but I can pick up.
PM me price
If anyone knows of a good supplier in...
We buy a load of totes every year for use in our operation and then I sell them at the end of the season. All of ours are marked as FDA approved for food use and the papers indicating the original...
A few quick clicks but the site looks nice.
Sorry, just now coming back to this thread but thanks for the replies. I've been working on getting estimates for insulation, a new well and septic. Hoping to handle the electrical myself with...
Has anyone seen one? I'm coming up blank in my searches.
I'm in the very early stages of putting some plans together for a combination honey house/sugar shack with a commercial kitchen as well. ...
We got ours from Niagra.
We use a two-handed labeling tool. :lol:
A little late with my reply but we use a JD 6x4 gator as one of our sap haulers. We use two 55-gallon barrels length-wise in the bed. If you have the dump-box model, you can remove the tailgate and...
We have a 40x80 pole barn with a southern-facing roof. Where may I read more information about solar installs? Point me in the right direction, please.
I was reviewing some of the H2O Innovation high brix ROs and noticed the large amp draws on these machines. Wondering if electricity could become one of the limiting factors.
Glad it didn't ruin anything for you, cedar. As they say, there are no mistakes in maple products.
I did last year but used a filter that would only pick up larger items in the sap not the fine charcoal/etc style filters. I wound up removing it as it was mounted in my supply line between the...
H2O has theirs on sale right now.

We've had the same thing happen as well. Our workaround is to decrease the line tension by pulling the line together on each side of the tubing tool. This is easier with another set of hands but it...
Over the past 24 hours we've had about 1/3-1/2 gallon per tap. Fat lady on deck. We have about 35 taps at the neighbors place and they weren't running much yesterday, either. All sugar maples
From the IRS website:

Our gravity lines looked like they were just opening up early this evening. Should be an interesting week.
I'm not so sure I agree with that assessment but perhaps we could both be right. The trees we tap are mostly soft maples at least half of which already are showing large buds. We have two silver...
That is an awfully nice looking rig. I have a similar setup to yours: 2x8 Smoky Lake raised flue, flue and steam hoods (although my steam hood has a separate stack) sitting atop a Leader...
Our power still hasn't been restored yet. Before everything froze up solid we got two boils in but without the RO. Had to dump around 300 gallons of sap we'd been holding while waiting on the...
