We finished installing and testing our new sap filter for the 2025 season! The system will process 60 gallons of sap per minute, allowing us to immediately filter any sap that comes into our tanks before sending it to the reverse osmosis. This should lead to higher quality syrup, especially later in the year when it gets warm, and savings in disposable RO filters. We’ll also eliminate our bag filters coming into the tank, which never really did a good enough job and required frequent changes/washings.

We’ve been playing around with Amazon’s View in 3D/Room feature this fall. For fun we scanned in one of our maple syrup jugs and maple cream containers, and are in the process of scanning in the rest. The Amazon app lets you see the product in 3D, both with it’s own viewer and in augmented reality mode where you can place it anywhere in your room!

Happy Halloween from Nova Maple Syrup! Our friends from OSU had their fourth reunion trip at the farmhouse last weekend. One of their activities was a costume contest! We saw some great outfits, but this one was the clear winner in our book! Such a great crew and we hope to see them all again next October. Our farmhouse sleeps 10+ and is a great getaway for large groups, we have plenty of availability and discounted rates this time of year, check it out!
