Oh man getting out of propane was the first thing I did. I made a home-made oil drum, restaurant pot style evaporator that worked okay. How many taps do you run? I'm actually getting a leader micro extreme ro to replace my diy 400gpd membranes

I have 20 maple taps and we made about a gallon of sap last year. I think we can do better this year if the weather cooperates

Wow! That is a lot. I'm just tapping the dozen or so trees in my backyard. I gave away half of my syrup to friends last year bc we can't use that much. Majority of my syrup consumption is in my morning coffee.

How much syrup did you get from 700 taps last year?
