I've been thinking the same thing as ADK. 6 to 8 GPH wouldn't be much of an improvement over what I'm getting from the 3 steam table pans. 10 to12 would seem pretty good.
I'm curious of what the difference is in jbelany's and Trever5's setups is to account for the different boil rates.
2019-2023 40 to 50 taps to get 8 to 10 gallons of syrup
2018 Built the sugar shack, produced 10.5 gallons (converted some to sugar,& cream). taps varied 45 to 50
2017 Built 2x4 arch for a divided pan, 8.5 gallons from 30 taps increased to 42 taps during season.
2016 Produced 3 gallons & 1 quart Syrup, Block arch & 3 buffet pans, 12 taps
2015 Thought about tapping
