okay so I am down to getting the materials together for my sight glasses and I came across this on McMaster Carr:
http://www.mcmaster.com/#=fjsq5e
It is a plastic coupling for tube to pipe rated for up to 215 degrees and for use with potable drinking water. My theory is that if you can run hot drinking water through it then why not hot wort? I would use polycarbonate tubing with it for the sight glass.
So the big question is in everyone's professional opinion would this work? My thinking is at 5 bucks for a pack of 5 why not get a pack toss one into boiling water, cool the water and see if it tastes like a combination of plastic and butt.
