Hello,
So I am a new homebrewer and am ready to brew my first batch, so I decided to test out my equipment and make sure I knew how to use everything before I start. When I was testing out the auto-siphon, bubbles started forming a few minutes after siphoning started. I'm just siphoning water from a kettle to a bucket to test it. In the beginning, when the kettle is full, the water flows with no bubbles, but as the kettle loses water, when the water level is about 3 or 4 inches high, bubbles start to enter the auto-siphon from the bottom (at least that's what it looks like) and I can't figure out what the problem is. Does anyone have any insight on this? Thanks a lot.
