i am working on a brewing setup which i will post pictures of once it is done.
is there a cheap way to pump ONLY mash and sparge water with out spending $150.00? i just want to move water from HLT to mash tun without having to dump or use gravity. if this has been covered, please post link. i did a search and didn't find it.

Not for a new high temp pump.
How much can you spend?
Mash pump is not the same as a wort pump.
Mash pumps start around $500.00 for brass body.

I know a couple of people using a pump from a dishwasher. Don't know where they got them but they seem happy with them.

There is a promotion at morebeer.com until March 7th which is 20% off a march pump. Use promo code STMPUMP09. I just bought one for $123.16 with free shipping.

This is the one: March High Temperature Brewing Pump | MoreBeer

I will use a used hot water circulation pump both for circulating the mash and transporting the water from the HLT to the MLT.

Try this one.Harbor Freight Tools - Quality Tools at the Lowest Prices

Harbor freight says the max temperature with that pump is 125F. I was also concerned about Warning #4 in the manual...

4. DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT IF UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ALCOHOL OR DRUGS.
