I added one more tap this afternoon around 5:00 - a Leader 5/16 straight spout that I picked up today at the Milford Agway. That thing started running like a leaky faucet. Only problem with that type of spout, my buckets don't fit it - needed to enlarge the hole on a plastic bucket. Looking like NH is going to have a good week! Better get ready for a lot of boiling time!
Im hoping so...i have a feeling im going to need a lot of propane this week...really wish i planned better and set up a wood burning setup, next year for sure!!
