Customer Reviews for VEVOR Maple Syrup Evaporator Pan 36x24x9.5 Inch Stainless Steel Maple Syrup Boiling Pan with Valve

Pan is made very well. Quality valves and fittings. Glass on temperature gauge was broken on arrival. Seller quickly sent me a new gauge. Amazing customer service.

We've been able to get between two and three gallons per hour evaporation using this pan on simple two propane burner setup. Took around 21 hours to do 52 gallons of sap. Expect to switch to wood burner set up instead of propane burners later this season.- Pan was not hard to set up though had some difficulty getting valve on warming tray to stop leaking due to problems with the threads on the warming pan.- Very convenient to have thermometer on side. Able to monitor temperature regularly though it is mounted to high on the side of the pan to determine when sap is ready to draw off to finish in the house.- This is perfect for home use with about 10-15 taps. Pan is thick enough that we don't see any significant scorching.- Need to have flat scoop to get the last of the syrup out of the pan when done as valve is on the side and it is not safe to tip it when hot to get the last of the syrup out.- Bought this to evaporate sap for few trees this year and will convert to finishing pan next as our operation expands.

Excellent quality product ! I tried making maple syrup with the family this year and it worked perfectly for us.

Easy set up. Pan was just what I needed. Boiling was way faster due to the larger surface area.

Heavy duty boil sap

Excellent quality

I’ve used it 3 times now. It works pretty well with the exception of the temperature gauge is too high. It should be 2-3 inches lower.

My wife loves it. Should be perfect for her syrup hobby this year. Will be using the large pan and should make it more controllable.

I really wanted to give this 5 stars. It is a great purchase, and I am very happy with it. The warming tank is a real value-add. The metal thickness is excellent - not too thin and not too heavy. The welds are all well done. The drain valves are great quality and are easy to use.There are two details that could be improved for that fifth star. The drain valves are slightly above the bottom, so you have to tip the entire evaporator to get most of the liquid out. If the drains were located on the same side, I could slightly slope the whole evaporator to that corner, but they aren't. I have it tilted toward the end for the drains which helps. The thermometer is mounted half way up on the side (too high for smaller batches). When I installed the thermometer, it seated at about the 9 o'clock position (no adjusting it), so it makes reading temps interesting. The thermometer is also in Celsius only (no Fahrenheit) just in case that matters to you.

Looking forward to trying it out next year
