North Facing Sugarworks 2023

Boiled off the 200 gallons plus around 100 from a friends taps yesterday as I don't have the ability to keep the sap from freezing in the raw sap tank overnight and it only reached about 28* today. Made 6 gallons of beautiful syrup that will get bottled up later this week. Brings the season total to 17 gallons. Boiled about 100 gallons of water today as I had a busload coming to tour the sugarhouse. Had a bunch of visitors and sold some syrup, overall a good weekend and I am looking forward to doing it again next year.

Short answer to that is yes, with the caveat that you will need a way to control the flow through that line. Shurflo's are not a hign volume pump and thus you really only want to have just enough flow to keep the diaphragm wet and not use up more of the pumps capacity than needed.

Thank you for the information. I will put a valve into the line to reduce circulation flow.
