What is a desired flow rate for transfering wort? I am looking for alternative pumps that may work. I have found a few transfer pumps that I can get on the cheap but, I just want to find out what the flow rates on you guys pumps are.
 
I'm using a March 809-HS, but it depends on the wort temp as it exits my CFC. If it's <70*F then I'm pumping it into the primaries. I suspect it's running about 1/2 gallon/minute or more, but not more than 1 gallon/minute.
