Default High Temp Hose Question
Quick Question:
I recently acquired a free rubbermaid 5 gal cooler to use as a HLT in the hopes of trying fly sparging. I installed a bulkhead valve and I am having trouble figuring out what type of hose to use to deliver the sparge water. I have been using standard 5/8" ID vinyl for the outlet of my MLT and just not letting it touch the hot wort as I drain into the kettle. If the sparge water is 185 degrees or more what type of hose should I be looking for? I've heard high temp and food safe silicone thrown around. If this is the answer where would be a good place to look?

Yeah, I am a Muslim and I like beer.

No doubt you've heard of the Jihadist Muslims. Well, just think of me as a Jiahu'ist Muslim.

I may be wrong on this one but, I doubt Allah has as big an issue with me strapping on a sixer of Chateau Jiahu as he does with the other "good muslims" that prefer to strap on a sixer of C4.

I recommend silicone tubing; it's more expensive than vinyl but at least it doesn't contain plasticizers and bisphenol-A.

Midwestsupplies.com carries silicone tubing, but I order mine from Mcmaster.com

amazon.com or smallparts.com has some good prices on silicone tubing when they have it in stock...
