Jason YJasonY said:Wes, do you have any links for the pumps with the seal system you describe? Are they available for a similar price in a size that would suit the homebrewer? A lot of ppl seem to be using the march pumps ... sanitising would be an issue but hopefully its not too bad.
GMK. how is the IDRA for cleaning? Do you just run hot water through it as everyone else seems too. Ultimately I will hopefully build some kind of HERMS system so the pump would have to handle lengthy runs at higher temp. May have to give it some serious thought as it is about 20% of the cost of the march pump ... the extra capital could go toward refurbishing the keg taps or on a PLC for the automated brewery phase

Why is that Wes? I too was worried that there would be some unseen build-up in the head of my march pump. I pulled it apart and to my surprise it was spotless.wessmith said:I do use March pumps - have a model 890. I would never use it to pump the boiled wort to the fermenter.
