This was a very strange situation. Most years I too have vacuum lasting all night into the next day. But here the trees would start running at 33 degrees way before the lines...

Yes I run vacuum.

As I have the H20 sensors on all mainlines I can see exactly what is going on in my woods. Last year was a complete head scratcher. Never seen anything like it. On many days/nights I would have as...
Last year was crazy how many days I had as much as 30 lbs of pressure in the lines. Spouts out everywhere. This is the creation I came up with to solve this issue. I have sensors in the woods so I...
So I have two thoughts on this topic, first I believe it would be ok as long as the kitty litter was fresh scent. My second thought would be.... no wonder the FDA is all over the sugaring industry. ...
Price is not the same as last year. Call Bascoms yourself. 603-835-6361
I did use propane and electric on previous canner to speed up the process it worked ok. But nothing like using an oil boiler and circulator to heat up syrup. 60 gallons of syrup ready to can in...
I have been selling my syrup at this price range for 7 years now. When bulk was up my price went up. Now when I start selling close to my whole crop I will ease my price up. But as far as...
100,000 taps at 1/2 gal per tap..... 50,000 gallons of syrup. Now at 24.75 per gallon =1,237,500. That is how they make money.
I was told by a couple of sugar makers that my name had been mentioned a few times here, so I stopped in to see for myself. All I can say about how I set my price is that I am willing to sell my...
So sorry to hear you lost your father.
This reminds me of this saying "if 99% of the people voted the 1% wouldn't matter"
Did some, try it on the stove first so that you know the right density. I went too far the first try. It turned into something like cranberry sauce after it cooled. Now joe boisvert down in mass...
I have been getting 3001 to 6001 gallons a day sugar is 1.5 to 1.7. And by the way my dad can beat up your dad.
Made 280 gal so far today and still need to boil again in 20 min. Should make another 100. I am hopeful for a good year yet. .4gpt or better is not out of reach for me.
To complicated, go simple. Havahart traps are the only way to go. They work when you are not around. I use 4 of them almost all summer. a handful of peanuts with the shells on and come back in a...
I have 10,000 and that I can handle fairly easily by myself. The total number really depends on the setup. If you are hauling sap the number goes way down. The amount of time involved in hauling...
Made my first 50 gals this morning. Big deal. Is this season ever going to start
I recommend perpetration H
What is going to happen is southern vt is going to warm up and stop early, but central and northern vt are going to go much much longer.
CDL sells them.... give them a call and ask 527-0000
First, I don't think I have enough high pressure pump to do it. I believe that I could go to 15% easy enough but to do the 20 would be a little tough. Now that being said with 3 posts I don't think...
What I will be doing is running one or both machines to make 10-12% concentrate during the day, then when I am ready to boil I will switch one over to make 20-22%. I am able to make 20% at the same...
Just cut a ring around them (girdle) and they will slowly die. Then what will happen is all the limbs will fall off over the next few years..... even still there will be no leaves to shade.
