FWIW,
I have a 9” CDL and can usually get almost a gallon through before it just STOPS. Looking at the hose from the shop vac I noticed the end you attach to the vacuum port isn’t airtight,at all....
Thanks Doc!!
Thank you all for the links and suggestions!! Time to get to work🤪👍🏼
Does anybody know if there is a book or can point me in the direction of some basics of gravity, and small scale mechanical vacuum systems? I have a small section of Woods that would make it a lot...
I use a loop of 550 cord and carry it like a sling bag, I wrap it around the handle of the drill, highest on the handle and throw a zip tie to hold it on the drill,$.25 out the door😎
Mine was an RO filter that wasn’t seated properly,easy peasy. Send Carl an email,he’ll square you away👍🏻
So I replaced all of my membranes as well as added another housing to my RO bucket system. This morning I went to crank it up and was having issues, I contacted the RO bucket customer service, Carl,...
That’s a slick setup!! Is it a bear to break down and reassemble?
I do a similar setup with a heat lamp below the RO and just tent a cheap canvas drop cloth over all of it, below freezing without issue. It doesn’t take much to keep it above freezing in an unheated...
Sounds like you got the bug, welcome to the party!!
No ignorance in an honest question. The hood,in conjunction with the preheater, keeps the temperature up and the steam is hotter than 212. It’ll...
What’s your setup? 4gal/hr can be cranked up with some easy improvements. Adding a pre-heater and a hood will do wonders for keeping the boil rolling, and if you can add a fan, DO IT,you won’t regret...
2nd year and it worked flawlessly this season, replacing membranes for next season and upgrading to an RB25 by adding a membrane. I wouldn’t hesitate and get on the waitlist 👍🏻👍🏻
I know the Big guy that makes bourbon barrel aged syrup uses a barrel that aged bourbon for 8 years or more, and uses a "wet" barrel, recently dumped and still has residual alcohol left behind as...
I haven’t, but substituting sugars can throw a recipe off
Hey everybody,
I hope your maple season is still going and going great!! I’m looking for a recipe for soft maple caramels, they don’t have any white sugar,corn syrup or brown sugar in them. Just...
My guess the SS pipe rusted was galvanic corrosion, google it
The pressure switch Carl sells is what you want. If the switch detects a drop in pressure,IE the sap tank is drawn down/you spring a leak somehow. I think it’s 20$,again, it’s a no brainer imho.
I...
I ditto that disclaimer 💯
I resisted an RO for a number of years and finally pulled the trigger last year, best money I’ve ever spent. I’m a 1 man operation, and this helps me considerably all around.
I purchased the...
That was my original though but given its food grade and a milk fitting, I thought there might be a specific/special material that might be used given the food contact. Thanks Brian!!
Good eye Flats!! It is indeed,it’s a 200 gallon that I’ll use in the RO room. Thanks for the link and the info 👍🏼 There is too much info/variations out there to nail down something that got me in the...
So I have an older 200 gallon Bulk Tank that I want to use this season, I know I procrastinated, but I need to find some fittings to make it work. The rubber gaskets etc, or a total updated SHINY...

I had the same problem and came up with a funnel build out of a food grade 55 gallon barrel, some pvc,a few pvc fittings, a handful of SS bolts. I strap it to the IBC and run, works like a champ and...
