Hi - I was going to build a heat stick for indoor winter brewing this week and all the plans call for the chrome plated brass drain tube. It looks like a lot of people use this but my question is using this piece safe? ie..lead, will chrome plating wear and break down in boiling wort? Considering this piece is used as a drain piece I can't imagine it takes being food safe into consideration. I've tried looking this up but haven't found anything regarding actual safety using this piece in a heat stick build. If anyone has any insight I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
