I thought circulating cleaner through my recirculating mash lines was good enough...it was not. These really help get my lines clean to extend their lives.
Using this on short tubing that needs cleaning. Similar to the keg dip tube cleaners. Would recommend if you want to extend life of your short tubing. I know it works when my tubing looks clearer than it was before cleaning.
This brush is the best way to make sure the inside of your tubing is free of debris. Sanitizing won't be effective if you've got residue built up in there. Easy to use!
I used to use just Irish moss and still had some haziness to my beers and i contemplated starting to filter my beers. Then I tried these and have no need beers have been coming out awesomely clear.
If you have lines longer than about 2 feet, you need this. I used to try to scavenge "gunk" from my 1/2 inch lines by stuffing nylon rope through them. This is so much eacher.
I use blow-off tubes for high OG beers; this saves the day with those encrusted tubes, along with (ahem) forgotten transfer tubing that has evolved new life. Get your brushes, you won't be sorry.
Have you ever had problems getting crud out of your tubing? I tried several things before wising up and looking for this product. I am glad I found it on MoreBeer! I can now have confidence that my tubing is clean and ready to take on the next batch.
