I have a sap bucket outside my office window-just counted 84 drops per minute in Colchester.
Funny-I have a bucket with a tap and also a drop line coming around the tree for a second tap dripping into the same bucket. This is suspended slightly over the bucket so I can watch the drip...tap is outperforming the tubing almost 2 to 1 like clockwork.
Awful season so far-burned back pan-steam ventilation problems with new sugarhouse...etc. I think problems worked out now though.
