I'm looking into purchasing a pump that has 1" inlet and 1/2" outlet (the March nano-brewery pump).
1) Assuming I could fix a 1" valve to my kettle, is there any harm in using 1" hose on both the inlet and outlet of the pump?
2) If I add another pump to the system that has 1/2" inlet and outlet, can I use the 1" hose on both sides without any issues?
This pump will be used on a 50 gallon system for recirculating the mash, chilling, transferring to fermenter, etc.
I'm really interested to hear if anyone has experience in using different hose size than what the pump has on inlet and outlet.
Thanks in advance for your help!
