    Default Eastern Ontario 2018

    What is with the white crud falling from the sky lol? All it’s good for it’s keeping my collected sap cold but I only have 27 L because everything is frozen solid lol.

    So I finish off a batch late this afternoon just because I could.

    The picture is my attempt at filtering and trying to keep it warm, I cut a tomato basket in half and flipped it over and used clothes pegs to hold the cloth filter on. I put 2 prefilters in wrapped the thing in foil the best I could, got it all wrapped and the filtering almost stopped, so off the foil came and I removed 1 prefilters, got it all wrapped up... again and it almost stopped.... again , so off it all came... again, removed the 2nd prefilters and wrapped it all up... again and said screw it, I’m going to watch tv.

    I scored more wood today, driving just outside Port Hope and passed by Viceroy homes and they had 2 bins out front of scrap wood, tossed my son in the bin and he dug our all the good size pieces and I threw them in the truck.
