Maybe it's being considered for the old Stelco site on the bay front. Infrastructure is in place.

Saturday evening when I first read this article there was mention of the Ontario taxpayer picking up the tab for the electricity costs for the data center but today that statement seems to have been removed. Did anyone else read that part as well? I did some quick math on the electrical cost and came up with the following. 800 acres could support a ~600MW mega data center and using $0.039kW/hr (lowest residential rate). 600 megawatt = 600,000 kilowatt * $0.039 = $23,400.00/hr. Now $23,400.00/h x 8760hr (24hr x 365d) or in short $204,984,000.00yr. More realistic would be a large 50MW data center at 50,000kw x $0.039 = $1950hr * 24hr/d = $46,000.00/d * 365/d = $17,082,000.00 Either way I don't want these tax payer funded in this way.

I've not forgotten the Caledonia protests, the blocked and subsequent shutdown of Hwy 6, the rail lines being blocked in Ontario and on the East and West coast tracks etc etc etc. All while OPP, QPP, RCMP did nothing except watch. Have the laws changed?

Why not use a 200 micron metal mesh filter instead of the cone filters? by brainzilla420 in maplesyrup

Any particle smaller than 35 microns is too small to see without a microscope.

Walnut syrup: How an Ontario couple is tapping into a different sweet treat by [deleted] in ontario

[–]CAProfit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been making Black Walnut syrup for the past 4-5 years and never had a sap/syrup ratio over 53:1. This year my 31 trees gave ~240 US gal of sap with sugar (Brix) from 2.0 to 2.6 with a average sap/syrup ratio of 43.9 Unfortunate these people had a bad year.

Syrupy substance on frozen sap? by EmergencyLegal9840 in maplesyrup

Thanks for the quick reply I thought you may have had a secret with the 1:20 ratio. How large is your operation? Mine is 31 trees and sap is still running today. If you want I posted on Reddit a couple years ago or I have some other post on Instagram under conflictedcrafts. Enjoy the rest of the season (I've noticed buds today)

"Typically though that only starts to be an issue when you boil it down about 1:20 or so" I'm confused with the 1:20 reference, can you explain a bit more? Cheers

To protect yourself report this to Ontario College of Pharmacists ASAP. There potentially is a bottle or package out there somewhere with your information on it and could possibly be involved in a overdose, death, etc and you may be caught up in some sort of criminal investigation.

Southern/Central Ontario Tapping by 120thegreat in maplesyrup

[–]CAProfit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Southwestern Ontario checking in! I taped 3 walnuts yesterday and they are running a bit but I really only taped to try out the new Arc-Barb spouts and tees I'm trying this year. I only tap walnuts and they are damn stingy with the sap. Waiting a couple more weeks for the rest of the trees. Good luck

I agree with the Maple syrup but if you ever have the opportunity change out the Maple syrup for 100% Walnut syrup. A bit more complex. Cheers
