I bought this a few months back and attempted to use it twice without a wort pump, I'll stick with my trusted immersion chiller. $160.00 shipped. I also have a Blichmann hopblocker bought at the same time, again I'll stick with my 5 gallon paint strainers, maybe someone will have better luck with these. $40.00 shipped. I can send pics if you would like, didn't see the need, I'm sure you know what they look like. Thanks
