i may need to pump hot syrup next year and was wondering what i can use to pump it with, like what kind of pump?We use our old filter press pumps.Once they get worn out enough that they won't pump syrup through the press anymore, they still pump hot syrup well. We pump from evaporator overhead to our canner before running through the filter press. The pump is an oberdorfer pump. If you have any larger producers around you that run alot of syrup through filter presses, you might be able to get one of their used pumps pretty reasonable. Neil
