Description
This Siphon combines the convenience of a hand-pump auto siphon with the longevity and simplicity of a stainless steel racking cane. Plastic auto siphons are easy to use, but they're prone to cracking after heavy use and can break easily if they're dropped on the ground. Stainless racking canes won't break on you, but getting the siphon started is its own debacle. You either have to cap your carboy and blow through the hood, exposing your beer to oxygen, or you have to suck on the end of the hose, which isn't exactly sanitary.
Made from 304 stainless steel, this SS Siphon will last a lifetime and can be quickly disassembled for cleaning and sanitizing. To use, simply insert the tip of the siphon into your fermenter and give it a few long, steady strokes to begin the siphon. Once it's going, you'll hear the glass ball inside spinning away. To avoid disturbing the trub cake at the bottom of the fermenter, we recommend doing the long swift strokes up and down near the surface and then lower the cane once the siphon has begun.
