Auto Siphon for Brewing, Regular 3/16” Siphon with 8 feet of Tubing, Clear, 1 Piece, by ROUNDSQUARE

This was better than our old one, this is flexible. Very easy to work with and clean.

The siphon works well. It's a little short for a 5 gallon carboy, but you can make it work.

The inner seal holder was malformed into an oval instead of round. The seal could not seal so it could not siphon. The deformity made the inside hard to pull out which ultimately caused the inner tube to break off when trying to pull it out.

Was easy to understand, placing the tubing on was a little tricky(snug), but put it right together and with two or three pumps had easy to control flow for racking my wine, easy peasy! Great little gadget for starting out. Easy to clean up, hung it up outside on clothesline to dry and stored it away for my next use!

This siphon has 3/16" hose, which is NOT considered large for an autosiphon. In fact, even the small autosiphons I've used in the past were 5/16". 3/16" hose takes a very long time to transfer your beer/wine/etc. The included hosing is VERY cheap and will not work well with heat. I'm not even sure it's food grade. Pretty disappointed that I paid the same price for this as I would have a fermtech sutosiphon. The only reason I did was that it included 8' of hosing instead of 6'. If I had known the hosing was so shoddy, I would have stuck with Fermtech. This thing is just WAY too small. It's also too short for my 6.5 gallon fermenter buckets. This will work best with 1 gallon batches instead of 5 gallon batches or larger. Take my advice and get the fermtech brand instead. It is far superior.

Smaller than thought need to specify length so we can buy what we need. I will keep as too lazy to return, already have one for three or one gallon where I think this will work fine. Looks acceptable otherwise.

It took a few pumps to get it started flowing but the gap at the bottom worked awesome to not suck all the yuckies up into my racking bottles :)

Need to practice using it , before utilizing it for actual use. Would suggest setting up a rig with water so you can practice drawing fluid with it. Cumbersome to handle and knowing how to control the flow.
