G'day all,
I've recently been able to use a huge 50L stockpot for full 23L batch boils. I have done one in this method and it turned out quite nice compared to the same recipe done with a 6L boil. My only worry is that with a full boil i have to syphon the wort down into the fermenter. Not forseeing this the first time i panicked and used a length of silicone hose i had. It was clean and sterile but i dont know if it was food grade or not. Did i just get lucky avoiding a disaster or should this this be okay to use again???
Cheers in advance for any help!
