Impressive for sure!
Dave Klish, I recently ordered a 2x6 wood fired evaporator from A&A Sheet Metal which I will be converting to oil fired
Now have solar, 2x6 finish pan, 5 bank 7x7 filter press, large water jacketed bottler, and tankless water heater.
Recently bought another Gingerich RO, this one was a 125, but a second membrane was added thus is a 250, like I had.
After running a 2x3, a 2x6, 3x8 tapping from 79 taps up to 1320 all woodfired, now I'm going to a 2x6 oil fired and a 200-425 taps.
That is cool! I'm not that far from them, but haven't been to this one yet. The automation is very impressive, they design a lot of their own.

Somewhere around 800 - 900 taps on Atlas Copco vacuum
1 Sap Ladder & 1 can
2 1/2 x 10 Waterloo/Small, with Piggyback & hood,
Air over & under fire
CDL autodrawoff, Homemade drawoff/filter tank with pump,
Lapierre Sirofilter, modified steam pan bottler
Neat. The automation is amazing as well as the sheer scale, but I think the biggest double-taker is the underground sap lines. I need to absorb that aspect for a moment! The automation is sensors and networks and stuff but putting lines underground is a fundamental difference. (and I'm only halfway through the video yet so perhaps there is more!)
I finally finished watching. Definitely cool. Additionally, it occurred to me that there is something I love about all sugarhouse tour videos I've seen. There is always at least one point in the dialogue that goes like this:
Person 1: Yup
Person 2: Yep
Person 3: Hm. Yep!
Person 2: [pause] yep
Person 1: [nod] yup
Person 2: Nod
Person 1: Nod
Person 3: Yep
