I just bought a pump....should be here in a few days.
I've been using gravity to push my wort through the plate chiller...I never can get my temperature quite low enough though with a single pass. My plan is to use the pump to recirculate the wort back onto itself in the kettle after passing through the plate chiller until it reaches my desired temp.
My question is, I know that silicone hose can get very floppy when warm/hot. How can I keep it from collapsing on the end...or just falling out of the top of my kettle when my wort is pumped back over the top of the kettle?
