Gathered 10.5 gallons of 2.5+% on 14 taps yesterday about midday, and all were running strong in 50° sunshine, a vast improvement on the 1.5% on the 2/1-2/8 opening run. That was too soon to move. Still, this is a month before my traditional St Patrick's Day first tap. Had planned for 3/8, but yesterday was the day. 27° overnight, so taps refroze till about 10 am, and I will probably get another 10 here today; resuming suspended boil this weekend; 1 gallon of 26% sweet still frozen in the covered evaporator; planning a needle-valve drip to attempt my first continuous boil.
