Got this for christmas from the wife. Ran some old concentrate from east Tennessee into a plastic tub in the sink. Worked ok, however, Im going to refine the process. Next trip out east, i hope to load up on some concentrate to run.

Nice looking outfit Gene, but you might be pushing the envelope processing in the kitchen sink.

I've never heard the expression "a trip out east". Good luck and welcome.

Got to love running paydirt in the kitchen, the frig nearby, the crapper nearby, TV sounding off nearby, what more can you ask for during the holidays but a pan full of gold and not stepping outdoors... Got To Love It... :hello2:

I put this thing on a 14 degree slope. This is some of the 5 gallons of paydirt I have collected from out east. Pretty nice to have access to beer and indoor plumbing when you are running stuff. I used 2 fine sink strainers to keep floatables out of pump basin.

Make sure its level side to side at the top end as well as the bottom end. (Material looks to be gathering on one side in the one photo)
Other than that it looks great! A little Jet Dri would help too when recirculating.

Looks like fun. What size pump are you running? Does it keep up okay?
