SUGAR SHACK BUILD: EVAPORATOR IS IN!!

[@lyleharkness-rv5vf]

I've enjoyed watching your build progress. I grew up in a family that produced maple syrup, mostly just for personal use. Brought back a lot of fond memories. Thank you.

Appreciate the comment . That’s my idea with the videoing of the build . Creating memories .

Love this build. What evaporator did you use? Make and size? What is the size of this shack? Are you going to use a head tank for the evaporator? Cant wait to see this thing fire up.

[@NorthernOntarioOutdoors]

Our evaporator is a dominion and Grimm 18x63. The shack is 12’x14’. Yes we are going to put an IBC tote outside behind the shack and plumb a line through the wall to the float box. All our gravity lines feed into our tote. Thanks, new videos of the up coming season soon.

Sounds great! I was reading up on dominion and Grimm today. I am in the process of moving to Vermont. My land is a sugar bush of 50 acres. I am quite a machinist and fabricator and may build my own. Not happy with CDL or Leader designs. I saw an old Smith Bros that I liked. But they are gone. The Grimm design seems to be one of the better new designs that still has heritage. How many taps are you running

[@NorthernOntarioOutdoors]

@@devmeistersuperprecision4155 ya we got our evaporator used last year. This will be our first year with it. We are thinking somewhere between 150-180 .

I love the timber frame construction of your shack - beautiful! I am looking at building something similar. Did you work off of a specific plan? Thanks!

[@NorthernOntarioOutdoors]

I had plans kinda I can send them to you . If you have an email.

[@wskippon]

@@NorthernOntarioOutdoorsI tried sending you my email but I don’t think KZbin allows me to do so as I see the reply gets deleted…

[@geoffoutdoors]

Yes! Maple season is coming soon 👍👍👍
