differences in bottle tubing

[alemonster]

As I clear out old tubing and replace I am finding there does not seem to be any real consistancy in the bottling tubing. some fit nice and tight and other times the tubing is loose. (which is probably explaining a couple of my batches that tasted oxidized).

Is there any place that people find that they are getting consistant tubing, or should i upgrade to better tubing like the high temp tubing. Please don't tell me to keg...I am not set up for that and do not have the room.

Thank you all, and happy brewing!

Mike

Are you always buying the same size? They do come in different sizes.

I am buying the same size..or so they are telling me. I really notice it on my racking cane.

I buy my tubing @ home cheapo. They fit tight,but come in 10' coils for $7.99,& are clearly labeled. That way,I don't have to run out to get more,should I happen to need a new length on the fly.
