Very true. I might head down to the nearest orphanage and get myself a dedicated brewer.

I think you need some Marchmay pumps for that bit of Shiny! :-) If anyone wants to learn to weld do what I did - buy a LandRover lol! It is looking good that Scotia. Very nice build, Sub.

I thought they sounded familiar I contacted the UK supplier a while back they dont do that pump here due to non CE marking and offered a couple of alternatives ones at £254 and the other at £155 the later only able to handle 93 oc.

Scotia, I got my pumps from marchmay in the UK but that was a while back. They were expensive I admit. However, I do not regret it at all and my brewery is just a 40 litre one. With all the great work you put into that brewery of yours those Chinese pumps make me weep, it deserves better but that's just my opinion and I am sure others use those pumps ok so no offence intended. If you order stuff from the states as I often do, try and get a friend to buy it and post it back as a 'gift' and marked (without any invoices etc.) or ask the company to do it. I have never paid import charges on stuff from the US either here or in the UK, but then all my stuff has been... 'gifts' :-) Sub.
