Wow!!Buddy of mine decided to jump in feet first and bought a local guy out. He picked up a 3x8 Leader drop flue evaporator with steam/preheater hood, and everything he has included. Head tank, filter press, gathering tanks, tapping tools, jugs, etc. Even going to use his sugarbush with existing mainline and laterals. 475 taps. Started on the sap house last week, and hopefully we can get everything set up and ready to tap in the next week or two.
I had a 2x6 small brothers raised flue evaporator in the mid '90's, but that was a long time ago. Forgotten more than I remember about making syrup. Fortunately, the former owner is going to help us with the first few boils.
makes my home made system look primative.
