Finally my first mash...
I built a mash tun, but I only have regular vinyl siphon tubing running from the mash tun ball valve to the kettle. Is this safe for the high temperature wort or do I need to find some silicone tubing? I searched everywhere and haven't found any locally. If I can't find any, is it better to use the vinyl or just let the hot wort splash into the kettle (worried about hot side aeration)?
