Amazing results from DIY Bitcoin mining maple sap reverse osmosis system.
This reverse osmosis maple sap concentration system utilizes an immersion Bitcoin mining heating loop to improve the efficiency of the system by heating the maple sap before it passed through a reverse osmosis filter. The immersion mining system uses canola oil as the dielectric fluid!

Now that I've had a chance to run several hundred gallons of sap through the system I've have everything pretty dialed in. Depending on the ambient temperature and sap temperature the system is able to concentrate the sap 30-50% faster than before without the immersion mining heating loop. Additionally, the sap is getting concentrated to 7 brix in one pass vs 6 brix which means removing even more water before boiling than before.
The canola oil immersion mining heating loop is providing a 25% rebate on the power usage of the total system after upgrading the vanilla s9 hashboard to an s9j hashboard. So, the system process the sap faster saving time, removes more water saving propane/fuel and boiling time, and it pays a Bitcoin rebate on the power usage. By adding the immersion mining heating loop I've massively expanded the capacity of my existing maple sugaring equipment.
Because the mining system is temporary and I didn't have access to Bitcool or something similar for the dielectric fluid, the canola oil was a cheap readily available alternative. It has been working well with no noticable degradation.
There are some downsides to the system. First I lost a control board because I splashed sap on it. Then I lost two batches of concentrated sap. The heater gets the sap warm promoting the fermentation process, so I wasn't able to start boiling the sap quickly enough in the warmer weather. The bottleneck of the process is definitely at the boiling stage now.
This system can be built for less than $700 and is more efficient than similar systems costing over $2500... Necessity is the mother of invention as they say.

Beautiful foggy morning with great colors but eerily quiet.
Got nature?

I'll be using on top n bottom but just to get things going. By fall after summer rains should be able to pull drip and relocate on another swale. Eventually I have 25 miles of swales to build but not all will get this jump start method of dripline.
This swale is in the compound area and an easy example to use for teaching so it will get extra attention for now to amplify the results.
i think nostr:npub16cay92zxv6wmqryxemwygcdmqhnr5r300dre6yawdy58p64lkg8qvss4mx does with twitter and cornychat via lowtech way of speaker to phone.
may be ways to feed virtual through obs
Yes I do it as Vic said low tech but I know you can use VAC virtual audio cable software and or OBS software to do it direct connect.
I need to figure out how to simulcast YT, X Corny, Nests and whatever other program so people can choose whatever they like. A bit harder to moderate for people to speak on all platforms but could just make it listen only like YT with chat comments.

Have a little laugh with your coffee or tea and go get some nature today.

Oh n planted avocado and lemon trees.
Finishing up the swale n burm below pleb kitchen and shop. Installing drip along top n bottom of swale, around shop, kitchen and trailers. Using all of 300 meters of drip tubing and now to install all the emitters.
Alot of work for a week or so but once automated I can focus on other projects instead of watering.
Buenos dÃas nostriches...
Are we having fun yet!
Now go get some nature and have an awesome day!

I've been busy right clipping my favorite NFT's the last couple of days.
The large green Nitrogen Fixing Tree on right is aptly called Palo Verde and in the left is an old Mesquite.
Clip
Mix soil
Trim clipping
A little rootone
Plant n keep moist 🤞
Also planted seeds of the very useful and fast growing Moringa tree.
Got to be ready for rainy season with many, many more NFT clones🤣

So I just discovered Mercado Pago who accepts bitcoin for purchases on Mercadolibre (Latin Amazon) now you get an online Master Card and pay your power, telephone, mobile and many other services. This can save Mexicans a lot of driving once they begin to use it.
Yesterday's making of swales n burms cut short by my digging up the grey water drain...oops
Couple of extra hours of work for no reason other than I was moving along so well I forgot to not dig one spot.
Finishing repair now and back to finishing this area off.
Buenas tardes nostriches...
Had to run get water early so no time to post. Here we have a river of water in the air...going into summer style foggy morning when theres no wind.
