Built one of these a few years back and it works very well. We have since upgraded to a tote and trash pump setup because we needed more volume. But for the emerging hobby/sideliner this is a great solution. Nice build video Josh.
I thought about making the jump to a tote and trash pump but I’m not quite that big yet.
Ive made the same mixer Josh. If you change out the 90 on the bottom to a 45, it will allow both a vortex spin of the syrup as well as a bit of downward pressure to ensure all the sugar gets mixed and not have any small areas in the bottom up next to the wall. all the best
Thanks for the tip!
This is exactly the how-to I was looking for. I have the pump and the food grade barrel, just needed some pvc inspiration.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Great video and design. Now that you’ve had this for awhile, has it worked out well?
nice build Josh, I myself am building one as well
Nice project, I may have to look into building one of these.
Thanks
Ha this was really good I just got the drum and a pump but I had gotten mine to be the transfer tank I was going to mix mine by hand in a 3 gal bucket but that is really cool what u did thanks
Thanks you! Thanks for watching!
That’s a pretty cool set up Josh!
Thanks Dawn! I think it’s going to be a time saver.
Great instructional video!!
Thanks
would the sugar solution over time gum up the pump or have you not had that issue?
@@AngryBearHomestead no I haven’t had any issues like that but I do clean it out after each use.
What is your solution for getting the last bit out of the barrel? I made one of these and have to tip the barrel to get the last few gallons out.
I use my pump that I use to pump the syrup in my feeders to pump the last of it out.
Where did you obtain the barrel and how much do they cost?
I got it from Edwin Borlay on Facebook Market Place for $35 each.
