Started in 2013 with 15 taps on buckets and a turkey frier.

Mother Mother won't you please release your prize!
The same poor flow here in Albany area of NY. Again no cold nights. some buckets had zero sap! Last night's temp was better and todays flow was barely OK.
Hopefully next week will be better.
Tapped about 30 trees today and I couldn't be happier. Sap was running almost a staedy stream. Could fall asleep to the pidder-padder in the buckets.

30 +- Taps
Homemade evaporator with 2x3 flat pan, 1x2 preheater pan/finishing pan, lots of ideas, not enough time
I had about a 1/2 gallon of sap on 40 taps yesterday. Maybe a gallon of sap the day before. It has been very depressing.

Got about 80 gallons from 90 gravity taps yesterday and about 60 the day before. That'll keep the Half Pint humping! Up to about 6 gallons so far. That's about half of what I made all last year.
Got only about 3/4 gallon yesterday from 31 taps.
I'm right on the Raymond/Candia line. Just off of Rt. 101
