Maple Syrup 55 Gallon Drum Evaporator 2.0
I bought a Milsco seat just like that off ebay, $170 total (including shipping and tax). However, it doesn't have armrests. Nevertheless, much nicer than the OEM seat that came on my x350. Very easy to remove the original seat and install the new one.
Any updates?
Hi Casey, yes been to busy to make any videos the last few years. I get about 5 gallons per hour boil rate. Made 5 gallons of syrup last year. It can be a project fire bricking the unit. But I’m very happy with it.
Do you know what temp the sap comes out of the copper tube?
Hi Craig I was told by another viewer that this copper heat exchanger can produce cooper oxide under high heat. I wouldn’t recommend it at this point. But I’m still alive and use a WF Mason 2’x3’ hobby evaporator now.
love it
Put the legs on after you cut the pan holes out… you don’t have to reach in through the door opening… just saying.
I have the same seat on my X300. However I've been wanting to put a full suspension seat on my x300. Does anyone know a suspension seat that will fit the x300?
Sorry buddy I don’t know of one.
Hi Jon. I appreciate your video of the seat replacement ! However, over this past year 2022, the Seat Warehouse has closed - no longer in business. So I agree that the stock seat is uncomfortable, as I just bought a 2016 JD X580 used tractor with the same seat. I guess I will need to search the Internet to find a good replacement. Again thanks for the video!
John - nice video . I’m getting into a barrel stove setup this summer to be 100% ready for the winter , any pointers ?
I would watch my 55 gallon barrel stove evaporator video. I had some good pointers in there. Thanks Ryan
I just bought the same brand but 2x4 for next year
Great idea with the copper pipe!
Good deal man
Do you run the sap through a filter at all? If so when do you do that?
Tim I run through a filter before it’s goes into the pans and after.
Hey man. How did the flex seal hold up on the outside? I just repainted (aka Plastidip) my Big Rock and wanted to put a finishing clear coat on for extra protection. Thanks!!
Worked really good, it’s still holding up, but not as shiny as before.
Where are you located Jon?
Byron Center
What are you using for taps there at 7:52? Also, where are you located?
1/4 male to male brass hose barb, I’ve since move to a stainless steel lifetime tap.
Hey Jon, do you know approximately how much fire brick you needed for this?
I think it was about 25 old red street bricks I had in there.
I put kydex in mine
This is great... I am looking into getting one as I'll be in Maine next month. Thanks for posting this!
looks great but you need to get rid of the copper tubing idea... copper when heated, (depending on the temperature it's heated to) can produce "copper oxide". Copper oxide is a black flaky / powder residue that may be toxic to humans (debatable), but I'd prefer to have the syrup as clean and pure as possible if it were me. If you want to test this, simply heat a small section - maybe a 1" patch of a length of copper tube with a torch to red hot (or there about). Then let it cool or cool it with wet rag. Then flex of bend that section over a paper towel to collect the residue that will fall out of the tubing. If you'd like to eat that, then continue, if not - maybe use stainless tubing or just get rid of the heated syrup idea and just add it a little at a time so as to not loose your boil. That "dark color" you mentioned (and as can been seen) in the video could have been some copper oxide getting into the product from the initial burn in of the copper tubing around the stove pipe. In fact, I'm pretty sure it is actually. You can google the CuO toxicity. I don't think it will kill you, just not sure I'd want to eat that. I would think you would want to do this outside so as to not sticky up the walls and ceiling in the garage wouldn't you? or was that not a problem with the garage door open?
You do bring up a very good point, I won’t be using that heat exchanger anymore as I have the warming pan with the WF Mason. I don’t think with the cold sap flowing in the copper, it ever got that hot. Only when I was done boiling and the fire was still going and nothing in the copper. Before the next boil I would flush out the heat exchanger with clean water and black flaking stuff would come out. So you are correct and that is a great observation.
The best bourbon is made in a copper still...no worries mate! @@jonboersma1536
Crazy how much they get for new. Thanks for sharing this video. 👍🦅
Congratulations. Are you going to use your copper coil system around the flue and drop the heated sap into the warming pan?
Steven, I might try that and see. Should be interesting.
@@jonboersma1536 I'm really not liking the pre heater tubing with the copper. see my comment on your first video from 2020. And now that I have seen a few of your videos and the black color of the copper, I can say with certainty there's copper oxide in the product. And as I said in the first comment for your first video, I don't think it will kill you, but ingesting copper oxide probably isn't the most healthy thing. I think you should google CuO or try my experiment mentioned in my previous comment.
Thanks A-1 for that observation. I left a comment on the other video as well.
So cooooool
So cool
I’ve been looking for that type of seat for my John Deere. Even with your video I still can’t find it. I went to the website you said but that seat doesn’t exist. Can’t find any high back seats with armrests on their site.
Yeah I can’t find it there anymore either.... I did find the seat on Amazon seq90-0437 and the arm rest kit separate google bm23761. Its pricey, to bad they don’t sell them together anymore. Not sure why.
@@jonboersma1536 sweet thanks. I put both of those item numbers in Amazon and found both on Amazon. The armrest kit doesn’t have any pictures but is the first one that pops up and is labeled seat kit for $86. Says it’s the armrest kit that only fits Milisco XB200 seats. The seat you gave number to says replaces Milisco XB200Y-N so it should work then.
How much does this seat sell for.
How far do your pans sit in the tank
There 4 inch pans. So 4 inch’s
Hey Jon, excellent video. Every year you will learn something new. I have a Mason evaporator myself and couldn't be happier. Have fun.
I built the same. The only thing , I didn’t use the chimney flange. I stuck it out the back which pushed the pans all the way to the back. Much hotter in the back. But ya great job. I think these evaporators work great. Cheers.
Can't hear u speak up huh
Sorry about that. I’ll keep that in mind.
My thinking of the pans I get 6” deep pans reason being is it’s closer to the fire and and gets hotter I still only fill them a few inches. It boils like a charm
Go point.
Used these for a few years, only boiled about 2/4 gallons with dry maple wood.
What would you say your gallon per hour rate is?
About 3.5 Average
Great idea on the heat exchanger! I haven't seen that before. What type of setup did you use to have it coming out of the 5 gallon bucket?
Hard to explain with words. I used a brass 90 1/2” NPT in the bucket and 3/8” compression to the line. I also threaded a brass 1/2” jam nut in the threads coming through the bucket.
Looks like the high temp paint is holding up?
It’s sure has. This season I probably will add a little more. Things can rust up some in the off season.
Does this leak smoke from around the pans? I want to make one of these to put in a small sugar shack, but I don't want to smoke myself out. Thanks!
Adam, just make sure you get a tight fit when cutting out for the pans. Like I said in the video the pans are tapered. I run this for hours in my garage with the door closed. No problems at all with smoke. I
@@jonboersma1536 awesome, thank you!
Great job of explaining things in your video. I've watched a lot of similar videos about making barrel stove evaporators, but you did a better job of covering a lot more details. Was your evaporation rate around 3 gallons / hour?
Thanks Dick for the kind words. I did get between 3-4 gph boiling.
You should have sprayed it on the inside like I did with mine.
Yes I should have
Add a link to a video of the thing racing around! Little man wants to see it
I will post a video soon.
Nice video man. Looks like you had a great day. BFG
Thanks
