    Default Revolution pans

    Thinking of changing over a patriot syrup pan to a revolution pan. For the people with the revolution pan what are your thoughts? I like the idea of one draw off spot and the syrup channel being hotter.

    I love mine. We've made over 3,000 gallons of syrup on a 5x6 revolution pan and have only taken it off the rig once to clean it. It didn't need it but we did it any ways.

    I love mine. Being able to draw off at the same location was big on my list. Swapping is pretty simple. I would go the same way again in a heart beat.

    We used one at UVM PMRC for 10 yrs or more. Was a very nice change from switching sides and the process to do that was straight-forward. Rather simple setup. Never had any issues with it.

    A great invention by Leader,I can reverse the flow faster than you could put a pair of mitts on to switch a pan
