10" filter press capacity
I was wondering how much syrup everybody is typically getting through a 10" full bank filter press. I used to have a 7" and traded it this year. I may not be putting enough filter aid in the syrup to keep the papers from clogging. When I tear the press apart to clean, should the open plates be pretty well full of the filter aid? How much filter aid should I start mixing in the syrup to get it to cake up right?
