Silicone pipe for home brewing, Rivne region.

Silicone pipe is a material for homemade moonshine brewing, winemaking and beer brewing.

The silicone tube is intended for connecting devices with a distillation cube, flexible
connections of moonshine apparatus and rectification columns with a source of running water,
as well as extensions of the selection node.

In case of contact with alcohol-containing liquids, use exclusively siliconehose,
not PVC. Since alcohol or strong distillate easily wash out plasticizer from PVC - it spoils and
hose, and the product is of extremely questionable quality.

A cheaper PVC hose can be used for water. Well, it's better to take a silicone one - it's much better
durable, and does not lose its properties when heated.

You can distinguish silicone from rubber or PVC pipes:

1) By burning. Silicone burns without soot and white ash remains, while rubber, on the contrary, smokes
and leaves a black soot.
2) Put in the freezer. The rubber will harden in the cold, and the silicone tube will remain soft.
Silicone is not afraid of frost. Tested at -57*С, the silicone hose remained as soft and
elastic as at 20*С
