First batch finished. A little dark wonderful flavor. 195 gallons of sap turned into 4.75 gallons of syrup. should of been over 5 gallon but I messed up on filtering, boil and learn.

The weather will shut them down but we still got 130 gallons of sap the last two days, so we will be able to boil again this weekend. Should get another 3 gallons.
Boiled on Saturday ended up with 9 1/2 quarts 20160213_085606.jpg
