Fermtechs Bottling Kits!
The Original Fast Racking Auto-Siphon with NSF-51 Food Grade Tubing
In 1987, we invented the fast racking auto-siphon. Racking was never the same. The tip on the racking cane is slightly larger than normal, which filters out a lot of the sediment during transfer.
We included NSF-51 Certified Tubing Clear Tubing with these kits. Our kink free tubing is PVC free, non toxic and safe to use for food and beverages. It is a multipurpose flexible tubing that pairs well with our siphons.
Important: Temperature maximum: 120˚F or 49˚C
- Single stroke action draws a siphon without disturbing sediment.
- Precision designed for smooth, leak-free operation.
- Prevents introduction of air at the seal.
- Disassembles easily for cleaning and sanitizing.
- Great for transferring from carboys and buckets.
