Chugger Pumps are not powerful enough to clean sanke kegs.

So, I went a head and ordered that pump and it was delivered today. Now I have to design and build the piping and fittings on to my conical. I'm going to also included a valve. I'll look again for the articles that i read 50-60 GPM but can't look right now.

Before I put anything in my fermenter, I'm going to test it just to make sure it doesn't shoot off the end of the pipe and put a giant hole in the fermenter.

Here's just one of a few.

Required Delivery - Gpm: The required pumping capacity will be determined by the size of the transfer lines and tanks to be cleaned. If a single CIP recirculating unit is applied to clean lines and tanks, the tank CIP requirement for the largest tanks will generally establish the maximum delivery rate. Tanks less than five feet in diameter require a supply of 40 Gpm; tanks of eight to twelve feet diameter will require 80 to 100 Gpm. Detailed criteria for spray flow rates are provide in a subsequent section.

* Delivery Pressure - Psig: The CIP supply pump discharge head must exceed the headloss through the longest piping circuit, and supply the sprays in the largest and most distant tank at the required pressure. However, since most commonly applied sprays operate at relatively low pressures of 25-30 Pig, and since the approximate head loss through sanitary tubing is in the magnitude of 5 feet per 100 feet of length, delivery pressures are normally in the magnitude of 50 to 80 Psig, well within the capability of a centrifugal pump of sanitary design.

looks like I need 40 Gpm or probably less.
