Membrane Question
Was going pull the trigger on a ro bucket, but carl is backed up.
A friend sold me his 8800 pump(he is going bigger) and I ordered 3012 housings.
What membrane would be best for this, lots of choices but know idea which to buy ?
thanks in advance
Contact MES and see if they offer that size. Whatever you get, you want ones made for maple sap, not just water.
Dave Klish about 400 taps, down from much more. Retired from collecting and boiling in 2021. Mostly because of a bad hip.
2012 Mahindra 36 HP 4x4/ loader/cab/heat/AC:-)
3x8 raised flue evaporator
250 GPH converted to electric, RO by Ray Gingerich
6.32 KW solar system, 1.48KW is battery backed up, all net metered

On MES web site looks like the bigger sizes is what they carry. I have found 200 gpd, thru 500 gpd membranes
probably will never have more than 150 gallons of sap going though at a time. Considering that should I go to say 400 gpd or use the lower size 200/300 gpd ?
If you plan on growing your sugaring experience, go with the higher output membrane.
