started boiling today with 675 gallons of cloudy syrup on clean pans. 3 1/2 hours later I had the first draw of light amber syrup only problem is it has an odd taste. It is not buddy but more like a peanut smell. Best commercial I have ever made. Hope to pick up another 500 gallons of sap today and boil it tommorrow. I am on vacatgion and boiling is a lot more fun than raking the lawn.
30x8 Leader revolution, wood fired blower, steamaway/hood. 903 taps all but 54 on pipeline and 3 vacuum systems. Hauling sap this year with a 99 F350 7.3 diesel dump and of course back up is the Honda 450 and trailer.
