In order to reduce taps, you must increase the transition bandwidth. Use
the filter design tool to get a feeling for this.
Note that this is basic signal processing knowledge, if these things are
unclear I recommend you study a DSP textbook. For recommendations, see
the gnuradio.org wiki and the 'suggested reading' section.

I'd recommend fred harris' book Multirate Signal Processing specifically to help you with this question.
