I will work on posting some stuff soon. I need to upgrade my membership so I can post pictures.

I am about half way done with a Brutus style setup that I have been working on for several months now. I have a few questions. Is anyone interested in seeing the details posted here? What is the best way to post a build? Wait until I am all done then post a bunch of pictures, put all my...

Nice Pictures. They look consistent with the pump heads I just received. I have both a march pump with a stainless replacement head and a stainless chugger pump. Once I get them up and running I will post a comparison.

Stainless replacement heads for march pumps are now available on ebay for $49. The Chugger Pumps guy told me they have exactly the same performance as the march heads...

Did you buy it from ebay:usapumps or directly from chuggerpumps.com? I am very close to getting one of these myself and was going to get it on ebay since it was a little cheaper but he does not have any listed right now.

I asked about the replacement head a few weeks ago. I got the impression that it is a bolt on replacement for the March PL head. It seems like a great upgrade for those of us that already have march pumps. I posted this thread a couple of weeks ago to see if anyone had bought one of these...

My thought exactly:). I am working on gathering parts for my Brutus Clone. I want to have as much stainless as possible (easy cleaning and it is just plain cool). The $400 stainless march pump is kind of cost prohibitive and it too has a non-stainless impller. For a few dollars more than a...

Has anyone bought one of these new Chugger pumps yet? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220615363398 USA Pumps has them on ebay for $149 with a Stainless Steel head! They claim it is a replacement/upgrade for March 809 pumps. There is also going to be a stainless head in...

I have been going back and fourth between 10 and 15 gallon pots. I like the idea of being able to do a 10 gallon batch but since I primarily am going with 5's I don't want to sacrifice anything for future capacity (besides a little more $ for the pots). Will the grain bed height still be high...

That is good to know. I have alot of ideas for what I want to do and was going to be bummed if there was a fundamental problem using a single tier pump system. Right now I am thinking of using 10 gallon Blichmanns so I will need to slightly modify the brutus stand setup so they will be...

I know there is a lot of discussion about batch size. I fall into the 5-gallon camp because I like to brew more than I like to drink. I also like variety. There are tons of threads about people's brutus 10 builds but hardly any for 5 gallon systems. I am starting the design of a brutus of my...
