    Yes, I will have a head tank to feed the 2X6 Silverplate. The plan is to go into the sugarbush with a collecting crew and my tractor with an IBC tote on the FEL and two IBC totes on a trailer and bring back what's available.The tote on the FEL will be swapped out for a tote on the 3/16" gravity line. The totes will be emptied into the head tank as needed.

    What size head tank?
