so i brewed 2 batches so far on my new brutus clone and both times had issues with the march pumps. i have my pumps set up side by side, draining from kettle to bottom of pump and up through the pump and the outlet of the pump into recirculation of kettle/or transferring kettle. i have ball valves coming out of the kettles and coming out of the pumps. is there a method for properly priming these things. i have to everything such as disconnecting the silicone tubing to holding the tubing below the pump to get a decent siphon.
what do you guys do? i thought it would be as simple as opening kettle valve and turning on march pump. it isnt the case for me. fyi, i bought these things brand new, and they work great once i get them flowing properly.
