I've got 116 taps this year and can go up to 250 next year. I think once I scale up next year I'll have to build some sort of wood fired boiler. It's been interesting learning about where the biggest efficiency gains can be found as I scale up. Last year I totally redesigned my strategy around which trees to tap and how I went about collecting. It ended up saving me tons of time. When I only had 30 taps, the collection process didn't seem that important.

Nothing better than syrup made from start to finish. I'm lucky to get some every year from friends that put their time and sweat into it and I've helped here and there when I can over the years. It's been a while though and I kinda miss it. Sounds like you're off to a strong start!
