Tapped most of my trees 2/10. Got about 20 gallons 24 hours later, collected sap on 2/16 got about 35 gallons. Not flowing as much as I hoped.
2018 tried some tubing on 10 trees into 35 gal tank, 70 taps on buckets, 10 gallons finished
2017 built a 14x20 sugar shack from Jamaica Cottage Shop, 70 taps on buckets, 13 gallons finished
2016 replacing steam pans with 2x3 divided pan with 7 gal preheat pan works great, 60 taps on buckets, 13 gallons finished
2015 Home built oil tank evaporator,3 steam pans, 20ft copper preheater coil, 30 taps, 7 gallons finished
2/17 installed my first try at 5/16" tubing
Installed 12 taps in 10 trees, don't have the best tree spacing, wound tubing back and forth to get to the trees. Overnight overflowed a 5 gallon bottle, replaced with a 35 gallon tank. Have about 80 taps out this year total. Only got about 12 gallons today.
62 gallons so far this year.
