Siphoning is probably the easiest solution if you can lift the 40-50% up high enough or lower the recepticle low enough. As a hobby stiller this should be your first option apart from using a funnell and pouring!

If you must, try food grade pumps for clear liquids at the industrial kitchen/food processor supplier, and the brew shop.

A non-lubricated food grade pump will be brass/stainless...and expensive.

I whould suggest a magnetic drive pump, home brewing/wine making supplies

Morebeer has a great magnetic pump for $154.00

Personally, I would try to make gravity work, as it is free.

at 40%-50% what besides copper might be considered safe for siphoning. cob

stainless steel - and you are in luck, MoreBeer has stainless steel versions of the wort pump, or at least a stainless steel head that you can replace the "plastic" head with on the original wort pump. very nice pumps i might add. get a fan speed control and you can vary the speed instead of using a valve to throttle down the output.

i think they still have stainless steel tubing also. and valves and other bits.

i use corny kegs and rigged a copper tube outspout. just put in 1-2 psi CO2 or air and it works like a charm

store low wines in corneys till i have about 10 gallons then spirit run in the 15 gallon keg

vacuum may be cheaper...
