Finally finished the micro batch I started last weekend so I bottled up most of the 32 ounces of Pure Michigan Gold I ended up with. Hoping for higher % sugar content sap with the temps returning to normal.

Took a quick walk out to my sugar bush before work this morning to check things out. I found that most of the frozen sap in the bags had thawed out and the sap was dripping again. Hoping for many full bags tonight.
