I am wanting to make a device that will take whole grains from the malted grain to a finished wort with out human intervention once the product and water has been loaded.
The problem that I am running into is finding small pumps that are rated for the temperatures needed. The pumps I am finding pump too much liquid and will cost more than the rest of it will cost.
If you know of a small low flow high temperature pump that does not cost a arm and a leg, let me know.

A lot of homebrewers use magnetic coupled pumps like those produced by the March company. The pumps are made out of various materials, including some that can handle the high temps of handling boiling wort. The magnetic coupling between the motor and the pumps impeller eliminates the need for a impeller shaft and seal arrangement.

March brand magnetic pumps are made out of material that will handle the high temps, and being centrifugal pumps you can throttle the discharge valve to adjust flow.

I looked at these pumps and I feel that there are a few that may work.
