Alright, I have searched but I can't find the answer:
I am looking to buy some plastic conicals that will fit nicely into my fermentation chamber. I am looking to move to a cip system for them. However, the chamber is on the opposite wall from my brewing area. I am looking to hard-plumb tubing from the brewing area to the fermentation chamber and through the wall where I would switch to flexible silicone tubing matching what I already use to fill one of the 3 chambers depending on what's empty at the time. All pushed by a pump.
My question is, for room temp wort, is the pvc rigid tubing (often used for potable water in homes) good in this application? It will never see high temperature. I have other dreams of piping water over from the opposite corner of the garage to fill the kettle and run the counter-flow if I can find a good cheap solution for moving cool temperature liquid in a food safe way.
Thanks!
