Want to buy - Pump

[MrDreadnaught22]

Hi all,

I have a buddy who is looking to buy a pump to transfer wort/use in conjunction with a plate chiller to be able to update his setup; doesn't have to be a chugger or March brand necessarily, but not a junky one either. He's unfortunately tight on a budget, looking to spend $60-80 ideally, but potentially could spend a little more.

If you have one you're looking to sell/know someone who does, please message me!

Thanks for looking, cheers!

I use these on my system , have been for about 3 years with no problems.
One for the HLT, one for the mash/RIMS, and one for what your friend is planning . I also use one to pump beer from the fermenter to kegs.

Checkout Williams Brewing. They sell the Mark II Wort pump for $69.99. It works great, but the plastic head is not very good. It is better to get the stainless head Verizon which will bring the total to about $100. I have this pump, a chugger and a March pump. I like the Mark II better because it is sealed, does not get too hot to touch and is crazy quiet. It is really hard to tell it is on and running.

@SleepyCreekBrews- which ones do you use? It seems like they range from super cheap up to almost $200.

Thanks for the heads up guys, I'll pass it along!

I'd go with either the brass or stainless as those are food grade rated and can handle above boiling temps so there would be no issues pumping hot wort. That's said I'd most likely pick the stainless one for 73$.

Yea, I was thinking that would be his best choice too. Thanks again!
