Into the woods by 9:00 AM to clean the evaporator. Syrup pan clean. Bottom of flu pan is also clean. Working on interior. We’ve had to scrub harder in some places on the bottom of the flu pan. It cooked 3745 gallons of sap so it’s not surprising it’s taking effort to clean. The interior should be easier to clean.

It was sunny today and up to high 40s. It was pleasant this afternoon cleaning the pan.

Back to the farmhouse by 4:00 PM.
