This might be the wrong group, if so, please point me in the right
direction.

I need to find a supplier from whom I can purchase a small and very
quiet electric pump, one that will run at about 1/2 to 1 gallon per
minute. The fluid to be pumped is oil (sesame, coconut, olive) or
milk (buttermilk, coconut) or water.

I would check www.grainger.com or www.mcmastercarr.com

If D/C is OK, what about an electric galley pump?

An electric fuel pump for an old Volkwagen Bug would work nicely. $20-
$40 at an auto parts store. I've used them for a variety of
purposes. They'll pump water but I left one full of water for a
couple of months and it wouldn't work again. Probably not a good idea
for foods, though.

What gets pumped won't be digested nor placed into the body in any
way.

You might consider one of the many styles of condensate pumps
available. They will pump fluids with some solids and are
generally constructed of non-corrosive materials.

http://hartell.thomasnet.com/category/condensate-pumps?
for example.

Some of these sell for under $100 and will achieve the 1 GPM goal.

You can search a dazzling array of different types of pumps on eBay
for more resources.

I had a great source for fountain pumps that I use for Halloween
props. I no longer have the bookmark, though.

Something along these lines:

We don't mind an OT post now and again. What we hate is google. So find
another way to access usenet. Then we'll be nice. Maybe.

Now, there's an interesting statement. You don't want me to use
google to access this group, but you don't bother recommending any
other method. Guess what I'll have to turn to, to find another method
for accessing this group? That's right .. google!

And honestly, I don't know what you're talking about. In the ten
years I've been posting to various groups, the last six or seven via
google, no one has ever complained. If I'm committing some etiquette
breach, let me know. Explain it. Make a recommendation.

Thanks.

Now we're talking! That's where I'll go first. Thanks, Mitch.
