This is how I felt when I just now visited your site:

For a while there I was depressed about having to close down but that reference made it completely worth it. Just please don't shoot me in the ass with a BB gun.

Something else that might be worth considering is this stuff:

http://www.hoseworld.com/acatalog/food_quality_hose.html




BREWERS SUCTION & DELIVERY HOSE
RED COLOUR NR/SBR COVER
TEXTILE REINFORCEMENT
WHITE EPDM FDA KTW & BGVV APPROVED LINING - NON TASTING / NON TAINTING
SUITABLE FOR BEERS, WINES AND ALCHOHOLIC DRINKS

EPDM lining means high temperature. I have seen this hose in brewery builds but don't know where to buy it in the USA.

I suspect it is this stuff: "Alispir red food hose"

EPDM lined "hoses" like this typically run over $12-15 a foot.

That's out then.

I may have found a source for the dairy washdown hose. It is high temp, does not say food grade. At $1.05 (per foot?) it might be worth asking about.

Messing with anything other than silicone is a recipe for cancer. Just get hose from Bobby M and live a happy healthy life and take pride in knowing you are supporting a fellow enthusiast.

Your words, not his. Bobby is the greatest in my eyes.

I'll take my chances with the FDA approved, food grade certified, high temperature dairy hose.
