Haha love the setup Al! That white crud is helping recharge things here unfortunately...did I really say that? If I didn't have to work tomorrow I'd be out there boiling, but with over 60l in storage I had to push the button and resort to boiling in the house (window wide open, fan goin, dehumidifier too) so I'm not swamped on the weeknd esp as Saturday have to go get more pallets from a place outside of Ottawa. Must be better prepared for next season, cause this one is going on forever. Over 400l already, think around 415l, and no end it sight. Argh!
