    I just boil the best I can and those that buy it decide what grade it is,,,for example bascoms has a B price and a Commercial price,,,
    Made 8 or so gallons last night,(found my lost copy of "Babalon by bus" and boild to that...I get sooo sick of the radio,,one of my favorite things is listining to the SOX while boiling,,,not surew that will happen this year,,,there was still sap comming into the tanks at 10:30 last night,,saw at least 600 gallons in the woods,,releasers were looking very mungie,,,just about out of wood,,44 deg here this am and supposed to get into the 70's ,,,,that will about all it takes I think,,,,brought home the rte.11 and Hoit road releasers yesterday,,were were burning more gas than getting sap,,,,,,,,,Sapper I run 5 gallon jugs on my hondas,,they last between 18-24 hours depending on the pump,,,,and I yes, they do get very expensive,,but my smallest orchard is 350 taps,,largest is 800,,so I genrally get alot of sap per 5 gallons,,,gonna go see what she left me,,,,
