Realy boiled for the first time yesterday. Made almost 25 gallons. The vacuum pump is acting up, my son went up to check it at "oh-my-god o'clock" this morning, found it rattling pretty good from low oil, and shut it down. I am going to look at it first thing and try to figure out where the oil is going, suspect leak around the fill port on the lower housing. The pump was not designed to be operated the way we have it set up, and the port is just sealed with a push in plug with an o-ring. I have a strap bolted over the plug to hold it in, and it may have loosened up. If I have time I may also replace the brass bushing in the dead end of the shaft.
