Before using it, use your nose. My compressor hoses smell like a bicycle tire...strongly! Not a flavor or odor I'd want to dissolve into my beer.
Be sure to smell a cut end of the hose. If it has no smell, you're probably good. Seeing as how a typical home installation is usually just a few feet, I'm not sure it's a good place to cut corners.
no i dont need 100ft but i do need alot. 5 taps in a big refrigerator with a secondary regulator and the room to expand to 10 taps. i think i'm going to give it a shot. the beer will be a commerical IPA that i've had on tap many times so if there is any flavor difference i'll know where it came from. i smelled the cut end of the hose and i dont think it will be a problem.
