I run a 2x4 flat pan on a beat up mason arch w/fan,PH,hood,float and can get 12-15gal/hr. Little tweaks go a long way. The PH was easy enough to put together with 1/2 copper/fittings less than $75, hood was free-stainless steel clothes dryer drum cut in half, fan was $65 on Amazon. I love the entire process of the season, BUT don’t wanna spend the entire night boiling.
The PH was my first crack at sweating copper. After a few practice joints and a few YT vids, you’ll be a pro for this.
Good luck and have FUN!!
