Enough information for my first test.
After this season will evaluate.
A cpl of thoughts on the lead, first off you should not leave the pump full for any length of time, you will I bet clean it out after some weeks of running so long term exposure shouldn't be a problem for lead leaching.
Second, yes you need to size the pump/motor, but my question is heat exchangers, are you pumping to one? If so the flow rate of that may be your issue. To get a constant rise in temp of your honey, you need to pump slow and steady thru the heat exchanger.
IE if you want your honey to leave the exchanger at 105 (like for a spin float) you need a steady flow from the extracting line. A sump that starts and stops a lot will give some uneven temps out of the exchanger.
Not sure if that’s what your doing, but just throwing it out. A DC moter with control is COOL and handy, but pricey.
