Thanks Maineboiler! Sap ran pretty good over the weekend. Finally figured out what was wrong with my RO I built. I wish I build this years ago! Maidan voyage yesterday only running 1 post right now....

Thanks Maineboiler! Sap ran pretty good over the weekend. Finally figured out what was wrong with my RO I built. I wish I build this years ago! Maidan voyage yesterday only running 1 post right now....
Finally got the RO figured out yesterday. All I can say is wow! And we are only running one membrane right now. So the problem was I messed up the permeate o-rings when I slide the membrane into the...
Got started late this year and missed that first week of warm weather. Saps flowing pretty good have about 11-12 gallons to run through the press and bottle. Trying to figure out why my new RO isn't...

Nice West Sumner! We finished the walls in the shack so I'm just finishing rewiring our panel. Cold Sap Temp, Sap after Preheater Temp, Firebox Temp, Stack Temp and fully modulating auto drawoff.

Hey Marcus, the model is SYL-2381-mA. Should be the first option in the drop down menu. I'll send you some info when I get a second.
We are going to take what we can get at this point.. 9 Gallons bottled so far, 5 or so Gallons to finish. Only 123 taps in this year all on 3/16 gravity. The new drawoff is dialed in and working...
Nice!
Side note... How is your RO working with your new Goulds pump. An RO is my next step.
Here is a little video of the first draw off. Still need to learn a bit and I should probably run it through auto tune but it works!

I've heard the 120V pumps don't last like the 12v. I like the 4048's and just run 120V to my pump stations and have a 120v to 12v transformer.
Got the rig fired up Saturday night and all i can say is awesome! Dumped 30 gals of 30 something degree water in the pans and fired her off. Full rolling boil in 7 mins! I get exact dimensions of the...
Sirhart1 spring would be perfect! Doug what version of autocad do you need it saved in? It's saved to 2020 right now.
Hopefully this is better

Sirhart1- I'll draw it up on Autocad and repost it when I get a chance. At the end of the season I can do a more detailed write up with pictures also. Any chance you snap some pictures of your...

Hey Nate, that's kinda what I'm thinking. The only good pictures i've seen on here are of Dale Sparrows rig but i don't see any dimensions and he hasn't been on the trader for some time. I built a...

Good Morning, I am just finishing up my modulating auto drawoff using a 4-20ma PID controller and a belimo actuator. Any interest in a parts list and wiring diagram? It can be built for $350-400.
