Bill,
That sounds good!
Do you need a couple of cone filters?
If so, stop by and we'll set you right up!!

20 gallons on a small rig seems pretty fast in 2 hours. What is the minimum gallons you need to light off?
Didn't boil it all the way down in 2 hours...just to point where it's all in the pan. I kinda do it in batches, so won't have any finished till about the 3rd or 4th boiul.Originally Posted by Mac_Muz
I won't light up if less than 10 gal of sap.

Your doing good down there. I have managed to do a gallon so far. I have lots of trees but very little sap comes out of them so far.
maybe 50 taps for 2011
Finally ready to boil when I get enough sap
I just might be crazy.( make that I know I am)
Trees all tapped except the ones with 5 feet of snow.
Enough rabbits to keep Elmer busy..
