Blichmann RipTide Brewing Pump

The Blichmann RipTide Brewing Pump is the first pump designed specifically for homebrewing, solving problems that have been plaguing homebrewers for years. Unlike other general purpose pumps, the RipTide Brewing Pump is ultra quiet, very easy to clean and splash proof, thanks to it's totally enclosed motor and water tight power switch. In addition, this pump features a built-in pull style integral air vent relief valve that allows air to exit so the impeller won't cavitate, making it super easy to prime. A built-in integral linear flow valve provides precise flow control. The high performance impeller features a curved blade and strong rare earth magnets that can deliver 7 GPM and up to 21ft of lift! The included stable motor base is tall enough to be used as a cord wrap for easy storage and can be mounted anywhere thanks to a 10' long power cord. Couple that with a tri-clamp stainless steel head that can rotate a full 360° and you can install this pump in just about any manner necessary for your brew system.

Flow Comparison Chart

Based on the hydraulic horsepower comparisons comparisons between a widely common home brewing pump and the RipTide pump, the RipTide pump out flows the competition while running at three times the efficiency. When the flow rate decreases, the pressure goes up to provide a better whirlpool for cleaner wort, faster chilling, and a quicker transfer than ever before. Due to the curved vane impeller, you can pump over a gallon per minute faster at the same pressure as the competition's pump.
