Stop lifting buckets, kettles, and fermenters or relying on gravity for transfers!
Brew pumps unlock a world of brewing processes otherwise unavailable—create a return loop for whirlpooling in kettle during post boil hop additions
Stainless steel pump head comes standard—the ideal choice for attaching quick disconnects, camlocks, and other stainless fittings
Built-in flow control valve allows for direct flow adjustment on the pump head and eliminates the need to add an additional ball valve
Corny keg style pull ring PRV makes it easy to bleed the pump head of air bubbles and prime the pump
Tri-clamp pump head can be rotated to your preferred orientation and disassembles quickly for cleaning between uses
Imagine a brewing pump that eliminates cavitation, is easy to clean, has a built in valve, and is quiet. Introducing The RipTide pump from Blichmann Engineering, the first pump designed specifically for homebrewing.
We love this brew pump. Like a brewer wired on coffee, let us rattle off some of our favorite features. First, the pull style relief valve that allows air to exit the pump head so the impeller won't cavitate is a genius addition. Our next favorite feature is the bad-ass, built-in flow control valve so you don't have to add additional ball-valves. While we dont manually clean our pumps very often we like the idea that we can easily do that with the clover clamp style connection. That might be particularly important if you are transferring cool wort where extra sanitation might make a difference. Equally cool is the noise, or lack thereof, when operating. It just wears on you to hear your pump grinding away all day. The RipTide pump isn't silent, but it is much quieter. And to top it all off we like the mounting base and the extra long 9' cord. 9' gets the plug connection a few feet away from where we are brewing and less likely to be exposed to water - a simple upgrade that is really nice. Oh, and we almost forgot the power switch which is always a nice feature on something electric!
All in all this is a no brainer upgrade for the difference in cost.

Strong rare earth magnets and a curved blade impeller provide 7 GPM and up to 21 ft of lift

The Version 2 BeerGun will soon become the standard for rapid handheld bottling. This new model features an ergonomic handle, with valve controls placed conveniently at your fingertips. This upgrade is easier to clean, and even easier to use. If you've used other bottlers, but been disappointed by confusing controls or foaming, then this is the Bottle Filler for you.

Quickly carbonate your beer using the same process most large commercial breweries use!
Beer is carbonated and ready to drink in less than an hour
Easy to clean and sanitize
No one likes waiting, and the QuickCarb keg carbonator by Blichmann Engineering is the way to eliminate the wait from carbonating your homebrew. This high-pressure co2-injection system from Blichmann Engineering™ will carbonate a keg in 30 minutes, with no chance of over carbonating your beer. All connectors are included, and the unit hangs from the front of your keg.
Use is simple, just sanitize the unit using the built in pump, and connect hoses to your Keg and CO2 system. Turn on the gas, plug in the unit, and 30-40 minutes later, your beer will be perfectly carbonated. Cleanup is just as easy, as you can run cleaner and sanitizer through the system using the pump as well.
The Blichmann AutoSparge is extremely helpful when sparging or recirculating your mash. Designed to regulate the flow of liquid being allowed onto the top of your grain bed. If the floating ball is all the way down, the flow rate will increase. As the ball begins to rise with the liquid level, the flow rate slows down, preventing an overflow. Simple, yet effective! Requires at least a 12" inner diameter kettle, keg, or cooler. Includes 18" of silicone tubing and foam tubing float ring.
Installation requires a 13/16" mounting hole. Max 10 psi; cannot accommodate city/well water pressure.
Love the Blichmann QuickCarb, but want to use it on a commercial sankey keg? Now's your chance!

The RipTide™ (Tri-Clamp model only) has been taken to the next level with a design modification to be the ultimate work horse. Now it eliminates the easy-to-loose thrust washer and showcases a PRV vent barb that will allow for mess free priming. This version will improve the overall brewing experience and operation. Again, this change is currently only on the TC RipTide™.
Gone are the days of making do with a general purpose pump such as the March 815 and all the variant imported copies. These pumps are cumbersome to disassemble, difficult to prime to get the wort moving, require the addition of a valve, a switch, and a proper base to hold the pump upright. They also use noisy open motors that must be shielded from liquids. All undesireable attributes for a homebrewing pump! The team of homebrewers at Blichmann Engineering and our friends at March Manufacturing have created the RipTide™ to solve all of these problems!
