Here is my adaptation on a cip milk crate. The pump and pluming is zip tied and hose clamped to the crate. I'm using a half inch NTP ss cip ball with a 1/4 HP pump from Amazon. The pipe is 1" PVC going to 3/4 copper. The copper 1/2 NTP adapters have bigger ID when compared to a 1/2 PVC adapter, this means less resistance and more flow. The rinse function is not very impressive but im on 150' of hose with restrictive Y's and adapters. Hopefully with a short leg to my hot water supply i will get better volume and pressure. I designed this rig to be portable and be used in any sort of sink, tub, or tote. I'll be using it to clean my sanke keg fermentors and corny kegs. I need to devise a way to easily move the CIP ball to my wall mounted kettles lid, any cheap ideas?
