2017- 80 taps on 3/16 natural experimenting with Sap Sucking options

7" short stack filter press w/air diaphragm pump
Interested if there is an answer / research on this. For those of us with small setups and who pump fluid up our lines to clean them, this is intriguing.
Assume there might be issues with caustic base residue in the lines and making sure its fully flushed/rinsed before using any sap from the lines.
