Wiam, I live in Wheelock and would enjoy coming to see your woods setup and talk practices with you.
Remember to keep on ticking while the sap is dripping.
2016- 50 buckets. Made 4 gallons.
2022- 3900? taps + Smartrek! Made 1300 gallons.
Nothing fancy here. 1500’ vac line to woods is too small. Except for small (50 tap) new line I added this year newest drops are about 7 years old. Most of my 30p laterals are close to 20 years old.

I see you have a 3*10 inferno? Max flue oans? How does that handle 15k taps? What's your concentrate level? Best we can get is about 35-45 gph syrup production. Just curious about your setup
