UP to 35gals of syrup and all light. Sap still at 2deg Brix not very good start that way. Syrup is good and real creamy, stays on the tongue. We really needed this down time today. Looks like some winter left with this cold spell and no big warm up after that, good sugaring if it holds. Rest now and reload for the next round.

Rookie yr. Boiled 7 gallons first time which made 1.5 pints.boiled 9 gallons today and made 23 ounce approx...
Im using 8 ounce glass containers and not sure how to bottle correctly?
I cleaned all with dawn and rinsed in hottest h20 really well.
Then i let syrup cool to room temp, then filtered/filled totally full and refrigerated right away.
How will this keep?
Has great color and taste...
