30 overnight.  42 and partly cloudy today.   30 for a few hours isn’t low enough to stimulate a sap run.  We need mid-20s for 8-10 hours.

We’ve collected 6 times this season.  During a normal season we’d collect 9-11 times.

We cooked 625 gallons in 12 hours yesterday:  that’s 52 gallons per hour.

R/O processed 625 gallons in 7 ½ hours:  that’s 83 gallons per hour.  We should get 115-120 gallons per  hour.  Considering replacing the membrane for next season.  The first two seasons we were inexperienced with proper washing of the membrane and it wasn’t treated well.

We collected 2785 gallons of sap so far.  That’s approximately 68 gallons of finished syrup.  We consider 80 gallons an average season.  We need approximately 500 more gallons of sap to reach an average season.
