I have only used the blue or others like it in 5 or 6 gal jugs a few times, but if you tighten them when hot (soon after filling with 185-190F syrup) then tighten and turn them on their side for at least 30 seconds they will do well, as long as the jug was clean to start. I never even used a wrench to tighten, but often needed one to loosen the caps when opening.
Dave Klish, I recently bought 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.
