2022 - 5 pan block arch - 109 taps, 73 on 3/16 lines, 36 on drops into 5 gallon pails.
930 gallons boiled, 109 L (28.8 gals) of delicious syrup made.

2023 - 170 taps, mostly on lines, 1153 gallons boiled, 130 L (34.34 gals) of delicious syrup made, on a 2x4 divided pan and base stack, 8” pipe, on a block arch that boiled at a rate of 13 gallons per hour.
2024 - made 48 L, December to March, primarily over two fire bowls.
Mostly washed up just need to do the flue pan and head tank with the pressure washer. Boiled down the pan concentrate on the turkey fryer and that put our yield to 231 litres from 230 taps on gravity.
We’re happy and put that up as a good year. If it wasn’t for the run Thursday-Sunday it would have been a very different story. All the best to the “north of 7” sappers that are still at. Hope you get a good run this weekend.

Hi everyone! It's been an adventure since everything hit the fan in March of 2020. But I wanted to say hello to the syrup gang!
I have been enjoying a decent syrup season, with maybe one or two collection days left . . . . or maybe none. Mother Narure is the boss!
How have your syrup harvests been this year?
