I'm totally benefitting from the RO-for-noobs threads going right now. Rather than hijack one, here is another:

I've read the concentrate tank needs frequent cleaning because of the high sugar residue in there. Is the same true for the head tank and all the lines, pump, etc. along the way? How often do RO users clean or flush those? Is a rinse good or do you sanitize, too?

What about the back pan? Last year I got hit with ropey sap. I can't help but think the risk of fouled sap between boils is greater with super sweet sap going in.
