Another will my beer ruin me thread

[rmchair]

So, doing lots of calculations and whatnot, decided to just hot pack a corney. Went in about 165F.
Oops, I had preinstalled the floating dip tube and normal plastic line. Probably took a couple of hours to drop below 140.
Am I doomed?

Don't the floating dip tubes use silicone tubing?

Anyway.... why are you heating your beer to 165? Or was it wort and you are fermenting in the corny?

 

[rmchair]

Fermenting in corny. I used standard tubing. Cant be any worse than cooking with a dollar store spatula can it?

Other than leaching some extra "flavor" out of your tubing, as long as the keg bottom doesn't fall off you're good to go

Cheers!

You trying to get a sterilization effect or are you put off by coiled metal tubing?
