That's a beautiful setup, well done!

For me on recirculation and gathering running there is no benefit, however for transferring from hlt to mt I want it to move as fast as possible. Maybe it still doesn't make a difference but what's the point of using 1/2 id tubing if you're only going to choke it down at the connections?

Well I just cut the ends off and stretched the new ends over the barbs and they look fine so maybe the hoses are salvageable. I don't know the OD of the barb but they are the hi flow from brewhardware.com that many people use so now I'm leaning more toward poor quality silicone. They only...

What do you think it is?

Seems like the consensus is still Starsan. Ill definitely be avoiding that from here on out. Still seems really fast to go from new to falling apart that quickly but it is what it is.

They are the high flow from brewhardware and I've not heard of anyone else having problems with the diameter so I am definitely leaning toward starsan being the issue. Hopefully I can cut the ends off and salvage the rest of the hoses but I'm pretty doubtful they are going to be in much better...

So I built my new stand a few months back and everything had been great until today. I got to looking at the silicone hoses and they are all trashed with only about 6 batches ran on them. At 2.65 a foot this is ridiculous and I can't find anybody else having the same issues so I am wondering...

Thanks for the feedback guys! I was sitting at work one day half way through the build when I thought about the folding handles and table, found a little more scrap and pieced it together. I was awfully proud of that thing once it was on the stand and it sure is handy on brewday.

Been working on this for the past few months after brewing on asingle burner for the last few years. It started as some scrap handrail from the mill I work at. I'm still waiting on the mail for some more fittings for the chiller and bottom ends of the pump hoses but it's almost done now...
