Highest yields you know of?

[Sandersyrup]

So I'm wondering. What is the highest yield of syrup you have experienced per tap? What is the highest you have heard about?

I installed a completely new 3/16 system in mid Feb and about two weeks ago it turned on like a faucet. I have made a bunch of syrup. So far the season is not slowing down and I have received about 1/2 gallon of syrup per tap. (27 taps on sugar maples)

I read that it's normal to get between 1/4 and 1/2 gallon per tap but I can't find any info on higher yields.

I was thinking it was a lousy year because my buckets have been mostly useless.

Is this just the vacuum effect I'm experiencing?

Thanks,
John Sanderson
