Hey guys,
I just purchased a glycol chiller. The ice master 100. I am looking for recommendations for a pump to use now. I believe the barbs on the ice master are 3/8”. I am fermenting in a 15 gallon torpedo keg and plan to use the 1.5” ID blue discharge hose wrapped around the outside for cooling. Is there a minimum GPH and lift rating I should be looking for?

I used the 620 GPH pump from Harbor Freight in the past and it worked very well but I’m curious as to whether I can step it down and use one of the lower ones. Reason being, I plan to buy more in the feature for additions FV’s and would like to keep cost down.
