Pumpy's Brewery Mk Iii

[MHD]

Hey Pumpy... What type of pump is that and how much did it set you back?

Can you turn the rate up and down?
(I am looking at a pump to get wort from the kettle to CFC via syphon (no hole in kettle) as the syphon rate is a bit slow....)

MHD it's a march pump, costs about $180 + shipping from Process pumps (or SpecialK on this site, one and the same). Don't quote me on the price but do a search on March Pumps.

Yes you can turn the rate up and down. You do this by opening and closing a ball valve on the pump output.

Be aware they are not self priming, so it won't be a s simple as throwing a hose in the kettle and pumping away. You will still need to start the syphon.

My recommendation is install a ball valve on your kettle and save yourself the hastle of having to syphon. Then get a pump if you wish.
