I am considering which filter gravity filter system to use. I have a chance to buy a flat filter tank with a 28 inch by 28 inch rack that will hold an orlon filter or a vertical tank that will hold a typical orlon cone filter.

Any advice? Will one be better and/or faster?

Thanks.

A flat filter that size should be a lot faster than any cone filter and will filter a much larger quanity of syrup than a cone filter before clogging.

I prefer the flat filter for the same reason Brandon said.

In my opinion, a flat filter is easier to clean too.
