This tubing is so much better than the standard tubing most brewers start with. Silicone Tubing is odorless, tasteless, and is NSF approved as food-grade at temperatures from -100F to 500F. The translucent color allows you to see your wort flowing. It withstands high heat, which is great for any time that the wort in contact with tubing will be above 180F, which is the temperature threshold for most vinyl tubing. It doesn’t slip off of your equipment, never kinks, and easily slides on and off of barbed fittings without deforming or leaking. It is so easy to work with that once you’ve tried it on one piece of your equipment, you’ll want to upgrade your whole setup!
