Into the woods by 6:30 AM.  Washed out the pre-filter cloth wraps.  Finished cleaning the syrup pan.  Sitting overnight worked out and made it easy to clean.  The extra R\/O hot rinse cycle we did likely wasn’t necessary.  The wash tank water was quite clean.<\/p>\n

R\/O going by 7:20 AM.  Finished at 12:30 PM.  5 hours for 400 gallons works out to 80 gal\/hr.   That’s getting slow.  After the season we want to have the membrane factory washed.<\/p>\n

We drew off eight batches into milk cans.  Five batches into the new stainless milk can.  Three into another can.  We now have three full milk cans of syrup waiting for finishing and bottling.<\/p>\n
