Apologies for the NOOB questions here:
Trying to rig up this glycol system to two 7 bbl jacketed conicals. I don't have the schematic in an electronic file right now but the way they have it shown to rig up they expect us to run both conicals at the same temp. Obviously I need more control than this.
I have two electronic valves attached to each fermenter with a thermowell into each tank, but not a way to shut off the pump. This got me to thinking maybe I just need 2 pumps, or is there something I'm missing? I'm not comfortable leaving the pump just running with back pressure continuously but not sure what I need to do to wire it so that it doesn't run when not need.
Also, the pump that supplies the glycol moves 17 GPM. I need that output for my plate chiller, but is this really needed for the tanks?
