Harvey had a releaser pump break yesterday. This pump pumps the sap from the vacuum releaser to the storage tanks. In layman terms...a pump that is much needed at sugar making time!

After buying a new pump, Harvey made 50 gallons of Grade B. Excellent flavor, but dark color.

It was very warm yesterday high 50's, this could have contributed to the darker syrup.

No freeze last night, but sap ran all night. We have half a storage tank of sap this morning.
