Auto syphon mold

[eccipoo]

Hey guys, I've noticed some mold in the tubing of my auto syphon, and was just wondering has anyone any ideas how best to clean it? And also the best way to prevent it again. The tubing of my syphon is long and thin and I don't have a clue how you could get the inside of it dry before putting away till the next brew day

Pbw works great. Make some up and run it through your siphon. What I also do is boil some water and pour it through the tubbing (not the siphon) to help loosen things up. Not sure how boiling water effects the tubbing but it's got to be better than mold.
