I'll let you know when I order it and let you know when it comes in.
Should be within the next week or so.

Hey guys,

If we order 10 pumps, he's offering free shipping which instead of the ($93.04 for 1) or ($77.24 for 2) it's $59.95 each.

I'll get one
ChrisCraig wants one.
Any other takers?

Chris Craig · June 07, 2012, 09:28:25 AM

Awesome!

I'll take another one. When do you need the $?

pliny · June 07, 2012, 10:00:24 AM

No rush for the money right now. Let's see how many we get first. Then I'll order.
If we don't get 10 it might not work out.

If we can get 5 or 6 people willing to buy now, maybe it'd be worth while for the club to carry the balance in inventory for future purchases...

I might as well get another. you guys getting the stainless steel ones or brass?

Chris Craig · June 07, 2012, 10:34:16 AM

I'm ok with either.

fakr · June 07, 2012, 10:35:38 AM

Either is fine with me.

DandyMason · June 07, 2012, 10:39:23 AM

Same. I pre-ordered a couple SS for the same price as the brass so we might be able to do that if we order soon... Not sure though. Im good with either

Bump.

Just wondering,
Who all is interested in this pump?
If we get 10, we get a break on the overall cost because of free shipping.

So far there is ChrisCraig, Fakr and myself so that makes three so far.

Anyone else?

You forgot Dan...

So, I just got my pump with SS fittings. The camlocks don't fit. I emailed the guys at greatbreweh.com, and they replied that the fittings are BSP fittings, not NPT fittings. WTF is up with that? Where the hell do you even find BSP fittings around here, let along SS ones?

The site says this:

Specifications

Voltage: 12V~24V DC
Max Flow Rate: 12 L/Min
Max Water Head: 3M
Brass 1/2" BSP / NPT male Inlet/Outlet
Max system pressure: 10Bar
Max working temperature: 110°C (230° F)
Low noise: =45dB from 1m distance

I would expect from this, that my camlocks would fit fine.

Anybody else have problems?

They must be European pumps, they don't use our NPT thread.
