Brian, didn't get 2% but we did hit 1.9%. Yes, that is a totally awesome feeling. Until I think back to when I used to gather over 2% most of the year. Actually gatherd a couple of days of 2.7% off this woods several years ago. It is nice to have the bigger equipment. Walked into the sugarhouse at 0900, fired up the RO, then the evaporators. Walked out at 1200 after having running 3000 gallons though and everything was all cleaned up. the only bummer was that I had to go to work right after boiling.
