I have the gallon of BGT but I transfer it to my 32oz bottle. I have noticed that the pump is getting very slow. Can I buy a new pump only? Anyone have success with cleaning one once it starts getting slow Thank you

The only time I've had a pump get "slow" is when it hasn't been used in a long time and the product left inside dries out. I remove the pump and soak it in hot water. Once it softens, I put the bottom end in hot water and pump it several times. This will usually remove any hardened product on the inside and it works like new.

I've never tried to take a pump apart, if cleaning it doesn't fix it, I just grab a new one.......I have dozens of extras (I don't use a new pump for every new bottle of CC, just reuse the old ones)

I will give it a try. I don't have any extras though. Thanks for answering.

In case you wont't be able to get your old pump work. I did see some spare new Wen pumps being sold on ebay. Not too many, but a few. I've seen them in different sizes, even for gallons. Price varied by the size. Don't quite remember how much it was.
