Well here's my take on moving to a larger kettle. I think it all depends on how much juice you can squeeze and how many hours you want to work.
I also have a one man operation. I have a Golden #2 mill and a 65 gallon kettle. With my setup, I can squeeze about 15 gallons per hour. It takes me about 4 hours to squeeze 65 gallons of juice. Then 5 hours to cook it down to 6 to 8 gallons of syrup. It take me 10 to 12 hours to squeeze, cook and clean up. I don't want a larger kettle.
I would recommend moving to a larger kettle ONLY if your setup will allow you to finish within your workday.
I hope this helps.
