Good morning
Yesterday went well all for a little evaporator problem I can't get my front pan hot enough to draw off .(look at my thread maybe you can help it is named ( "Need some advice") on the tapping Canada screen.
Any way had about 85 gallons stored and started to boil then to my surprise was flooded with a run uf SAP 65 gallons in about 6 hours my main !ines ran like little streams WOW ! ! ! ! . I collected that liquid gold at 3pm and hope it ran into the night to collect this morning. I ripped those those gallons really quick , the new pan works better then I though in the drop flue section.
Did anyone else get a good run in yesterday's sun soakecd day today should be good as well if not no cold temps forecasted till mid week so will boil and drain flue pan and finish in the garage.
Hoping for 2 or more gallons when all said and done today.
