Transfer pumps

Post by roguepossum »

Anyone know of a good transfer pump that will use plastic tubing? Going from 14 gal mash tun to 14 gal fermenter

I wouldn't recommend one of these if your making beer
But it works good for what I need. Screw a short piece of garden hose to it and drop it in the fermenter

Chuggers are the standard for moving hot mash and wort around.

Chugger pumps are great and very easy to pull apart to clean. You’re just not supposed to run them dry.

That’s good to know. I wonder if you can upgrade the older models with a new run dry head.

Was considering a riptide pump, triclamp would makes it easy maintain.

I can't support Chugger after that hit job they did on Blichmann.
They created a youtube review of the riptide and told everyone how dangerous it was without disclosing that they were its nearest competitor. Reprehensible.
