I'm in Sussex County, NJ. We're as far North as you can get in the GArden State, right where PA and NY meet up with NJ.

Anybody want to volunteer and send me a PM with details on how to clean my gear pump on my filter press and anything else I need to do to it?? I am going to take it apart and clean it as it has been used for 2 seasons and wanted to clean the gears good and regrease before using this season??
I have a Lapierre 4 bank press.
Theron it was a pleasure to go down and help you out. I was in need of a mini vacation from work and the excitement of getting you up and running and running your evaporator was the boost that I needed. I've got to get the rest of my stuff done now so that I will be ready when it is time to tap here. I am planning on doing a lot of expanding as the money allows and would like to have you come and help but I don't feel that you owe me anything.
