Pumping out of a water jug
I have two old Tuco 5 gallon water jugs that have an internal hose (removable) and a threaded small cap where the water can be pumped out of the jug when hooked to a pump. If looks like about a garde...

Carboy with threaded connector
They are called carboys and since these are for labs the prices are outrageous. That's because real labs have contracts with the lab supply companies and the labs pay deeply discounted prices. But the 12V pump is the best idea
Here is what a Carboy really is (can't resist having this memory flash seeing "carboys" mentioned)

I remember these from home-brewing days making beer. I used the one-bottle method, which meant the beer sat in the bottles for a month or so with the gunk (forget the correct term) settling until the beer in the upper part of the bottle was clear. Then you had to pour it carefully tipping into a tipped glass so not get any gunk in your glass of beer.
The "two-bottle" method avoided that, so you didn't get any gunk in the beer bottles. My method meant you could not take it over to your friend's place or it would re-mix bumping down the road. It did not "travel well". :)
My friend made wine and used carboys for that. The idea was it took six months to make wine. So he got apples from my trees in the Fall, and we drank his wine at Xmas. We declared the six months was up :)
Only useful for RVers in the USA in the ? Ozarks ? dodging the "Revenoors" AFAIK. ( No fear of those guys in Nova Scotia back in the day )
