best 24 hr run of the year yesterday for us- 835 gals of good lookin 1.5% sap- boiled it all in- were making 10.7% concentrate with one pass (concentrate flow was 1.25 gpm and running it at 425psi) and 0.0 in the perm. very happy with those #'s...

went to check vac pump is salisbury this AM and the pulley had cracked and thrown the belt off...been a stuggle all season with that set-up

few buckets were still dripping this morning and if I still had the vac in salisbury running I am sure the goddess would be stopping by...

near 135 gals now...

this last run is like getting a par or birdie in golf on the second to last hole- its what you remeber and what brings you back the next time...

cheers-

-Eric
