So I bought the solar project pump, tubing, connectors and 1/2 inch ball valve taps to upgrade my plastic taps.  But I stupidly didn't check the hole sizes already drilled in my hop and grape equipment.  The holes are all 25mm.  There's then some sort of reducing valve connecting to the larger tap thread allowing the 15mm copper hop filter or manifold to be attached. 

Has anyone upgrade boiler taps to steel with 25mm holes ?  Is there some sort of connector I could use ?

Hi Jacob,

Was wonder whether the pump comes with a power supply to step down to the smaller voltage?

Thats the same one i got also. Great little pump. You have to cut the top off of the power supply to connect it but no biggie

I  picked up a power supply in Maplins.
