We're going to use open fermentors and will have to move the beer from fermentation to conditioning by pump.
Of course I am concerned about sucking in air, in case the pump is not stopped in time, and thus 1. aerating the finished beer, 2. breaking the pump.
Is it possible to get a pump that stops once there is no loger liquid flowing or are you aware of any other methods that might work.
I have thought of connecting a liquid level sensor to the beer being moved that is connected to the power outlet of the pump. That would work, but it is not very sanitary.
