HomeBrewStuff Stainless Steel Tubing Coil - 3/8" x 50' - DIY Chiller, HERMS, or Moonshine Snake

Coil came on time and in good shape. Measured out to a couple inches over 50'.I while back I decided to upgrade all my tubing ( sparge head, recirculating loop and my whirlpool arm ) to stainless but wasn't sure how much tougher it was going to be to work into shape. This tubing is tough but not so tough as to make it undoable by the "average joe". I was able to straighten the 3' section for my whirlpool arm by hand and a little elbow grease and I was able to bend the 90*s on either end with a simple tubing bender from Harbor Freight ( that I had doubts about using it on stainless, but it worked fine) . Same goes for expanding the diameter from ~8" to 13", it just took a little time and elbow grease rotating the coil about a quarter turn at a time and spreading the coil out evenly as I went and again used the same cheap tubing benders to bend the 90*s to go through the wall of my HLT. The rest, ~ 20', I'll probably use to make another convoluted type chiller. All in all, its some pretty good tubing and I'd buy it again

The stainless steel is hands down the only way to go when it comes to jockey boxes. I had already made a box with copper, but with hard liquors being chilled through it, the copper taste was imparting its flavor into the drinks. Before a camping event where electricity was scarce, I purchased this and was pleased that I was able to plug it right into the box and start serving beverages through it immediately.

Size and design were perfect for another project that I am working on.

Arrived in perfect condition. High quality, heavy gage stainless steel. Exactly what I needed for my fermenter chiller.

Not sure what happened but these coils are a bent up mess and do not look like they use to , seems to be different size every time also

Was looking for tubing for my new carbonator that wasn't plastic and this fits the bill exactly. I was worried it might be too stiff to bend adequately but that's not the case. Its stiffness is somewhere between flexible copper and rigid copper and is barely bendable by hand for large bends but easily bendable with a tool. Being 304 stainless I shouldn't have any corrosion, taste or sanitation issues either.

Stainless coil as described, arrived clean and coiled neatly, however the ends are coiled all the way through and have no straight portion so getting them straightened out enough to get compression fittings/etc on there can be a bear if you dont know what youre doing. Use a tubing bender meant for stainless steel tubing, it will break your copper bender and it will kink if bent tighter than a 3" radius even with a very high quality bender

Great work! Fits well in jockey box, a little hard to rebend, but that is expected with stainless. I would buy again, in fact, I'm going to!
