I've just acquired one of these for free :
I wonder if it would be good for racking from FV to bottle.
+ Self-priming (it will literally suck liquid up from dry, without having to pre-fill the pump as with other types)
+ Liquid does not come into contact with any mechanical parts
+ The flow can be easily started and stopped by turning on and off - no siphoning
- May be quite slow
- The pump-head pipe may not be food grade
Has anybody explored this before?
Cheers,
T.
