For the pan, it's best to use 4 inch solid concrete blocks laid flat ways, they will last a few years, and keep the blocks close to the edge of the pan so they don't draw away heat or reduce the area in contact with fire. Even a short length of chimney helps immensely because it gives the fire a draft and direction to go.
Must be running like crazy this year, weather has been perfect.
44.35 versus your 44.40 if you are in Sydenham.Mine are barely running still. Same with the neighbours. Amazing what a few minutes of latitude can do.
You did it the best way first run and have fun.
Trees are plugged and that's a sign that riding season is here every year
Time to get your spring rides in before the black flies arrive.
You need 2 motorcycles right now one with and one without studsI need to get the ice tires off....
What does the syrup from a Norway taste like? Is it the same but the Sugar maple produces more? To late for this year but????She’s a silver, very soft and messy. Silvers are bad foe snapping off, this one has crashed the house a few times.

I have a couple of Norway’s too, nasty weed trees all of them. I cut one of the Norway’s down 15 years ago, the stump still sends up a hundred 6’ suckers every year.
Norway Maple produces less sugar, lower yield. Tapping trees kills them but they are still great for firewood afterwards. The ones you might not want to tap in the city are the ones that you are going to need to pay to have professionally removed some day.What does the syrup from a Norway taste like?

My Norway is a decent size and I'd only tap it as a lark but I have to be careful not to do anything to it that would cause damage. City laws, big fine.

... did you know you can tap birch trees? also low sugar producing but people sell it.
Yeah, I was half joking. I'm actually around 44.44, but I'm sure a big part of it is the shade in the area, and my neighbour's trees are on a North facing slope.44.35 versus your 44.40 if you are in Sydenham.
Very close to the same latitude.
But this season has been early
