Anyone have any good tips to clean the inside of an auto-siphon racking cane? I racked a couple batches today and went to clean up. I sucked some sediment in my last batch and have purple gunk inside my auto-siphon and the hose that will not rinse out.
I have tried running hot water through it for an extended period of time. I put a bowl in the sink, filled it withscalding hot water and started the siphon. I let the water run and the siphon run for about 10 minutes with no change.
I tried the jet blast bottle washer and neither worked.I have a brush to clean airlocks with but can't get it down far enough to where the deposits are. I don't mind throwing the hose away but I do hate throwing the auto-siphon away.
Any suggestions?
