I am planning at least one more boil next weekend. Might do another this week just to reduce the sap before the warm weather.
I added a more powerful blower to my rig and really experienced the difference today. Achieved 16GPH evaporation rate and it was boiling with a fury I have not experienced before. I knew my old blower was not powerful enough, but not sure I expected this much improvement.
