Anyone use the technique in the following video to make a stainless braid filter for their mash tun? He puts a bunch of holes in the rubber hose, then puts it back into the stainless braid. Supposedly it prevents the braid from collapsing and prevents stuck sparges.

So I went out and got a water heater hookup hose that's rated for 200F, did a test with 155F mash temp water (no grain) for 1 hour to see if I'd pick up any rubber smells/tastes. Neither wife nor I could detect any rubber smells/tastes. Does anyone else use a filter like this with the rubber insert inside?
Thx, going to do first all grain brew on Monday!
