I took the stainless steel braid off of the pipe and put everything in order according to the post here on homebrewtalk...I noticed that the steel braid is extremely soft and "pinchable". I've also been reading that there are a lot of people who say to use a ss spring to give it support, but there's another post from Bobby that says it doesn't really have that much pressure and some people don't reinforce at all.
I can't see how the weight of the grain can't crush this thing if it's not supported....can you "pinch" yours without resistance?
