I am getting ready to rack my wine for the first time and I noticed my siphon tube is cloudy. I cleaned after transferring from the fermentor and rinsed well but the inside of the tube is cloudy, almost like a mineral deposit. I have hard well water so I think this may be the culprit. The question is, can I just clean this in b-brite or one step and use, or should I discard and use the new tube I just acquired at the supply store? I picked up a 5 gal. & 1 gal. carboy to get this process moving along. I fear this is going to be an on going problem with the tubing. Any suggestions for the future as well. I clean all equipment after using before storing.
