That's awesome Kevin, and congrats too, from over here on Little Mountain.
Been playing with the new RO this past week, it's pulling 50 gal of water an hour out of the collection tank. For me, with sap at <1% this year, it's a game changer.
I'm definitely staying in until at least end of next week. Too much time lost early and mid Feb and lots of catching up to do.
The air injection has also been a plus, everything so far has been just a tad above delicate, and the syrup pan seems to be easier to clean with no burnt-on sand.
