Pumping Wash Into Still

Post by glasseye »

How are you moving wash into the still? I'm transferring 50L batches from a 55 USG fermenter.

I used one like this for two runs:

But it has failed. It spins fine and will pump water if the cover plate is loosened, but stalls on wash when properly assembled. I've inspected and cleaned and lubed with olive oil the pump cavity and it seems fine, but it just won't pump wash. It stalls.

Siphoning has proven inefficient, as has moving wash by bucket. :crazy:
