7 overnight. Tanks stayed liquid. Sunny, but cold all day. Only reached 23. Needed the insulated coveralls. Hands didn’t feel warm all day even though they weren’t getting wet.
Into the woods by 8:30 AM. Started a fire under the evaporator then started the R/O. More sap then planned in the evaporator so took until 10:00 AM to start drawing from the concentrate tank. Three batches into the milk cans. About 2 hours between batches. Back to the house by 3:15 PM.
All tanks are empty. The 575 gallons from Tuesday is finished. One milk can is full and another started.
R/O finished by 11:30 AM. The R/O is running a wash cycle now. That takes several hours but shuts off automatically when completed.
12 tonight. Tomorrow 37. But Sunday and Monday hit 50s again.
