Looking at that pic TurkeyJohn posted of the filter hanging and the liquid gold dripping through makes me hungry!
I feel like i should whip up some pancakes and sausages and drown them in the good stuff!
Well, maybe this isn't the place to post, and if not then please folks feel free to tell me so.
We've collected another 25 litres into storage and have about half that in the buckets again (even in the snow there's a steady drip?!).
So in the meantime we spent a bit of time further off setting up the new rig (pic below, click to enlarge, I hope LOL).
Got a braced shelf completed under the gravity tank and a ball valve added to the tank outlet.
Also hung an old kitchen cabinet (left over from a reno) to store off season stuff like buckets, lids etc (which currently take up space when not being used in our already very cramped storage room in the basement).
The cabinet is a little banged up as we were rough on everything during removal but we have some left over cedar v-groove we'll apply to dress up the sides and bottom and then maybe give it a fresh coat of paint.
The inside needs a very good cleaning as well LOL.
But that will have to happen later.....
While the final goal in a few years will be to build a dedicated sugar shack up north, that won't happen for a few years at best, so this will do for now.
Soon off to grab another evap unit for my brother in-law and then heading out for a long over due night out with my wife.....sans kids!!
