Small hose clamp suitable for 3/16" to 5/8" OD tubing
Go-to clamp for anywhere you need to secure tubing
Made from stainless steel
These Stainless Steel small hose clamps are perfect to keep around as your go-to clamp. Use them anywhere you want to be sure your tubing will stay connected. They are perfect for silicone hoses and hooking up quick disconnects, pumps, or on any system that may need a tight seal. These stainless clamps tighten up better than cheaper ones, and the stainless steel won’t corrode. It’s handy to keep a few spares around, just in case.
Our small clamps will fit hoses with 3/16" through 5/8" OD.
Thin walled tubing perfect for siphoning or tranferring liquids when not under pressure. This is the most common size hose for homebrewing that you would need to fit onto the plastic spigots (FE347), 3/8'' OD bottle fillers, and the 3/8'' OD racking canes.
3/8" ID, 1/2" OD
1/8" thick wall
Functions the same as a standard Hose Clamp, however rather than needing to find a screwdriver (or dime!) for every adjustment you can easily tighten by hand.
As an added bonus, this also has a significantly smoother inside to the clamp, which will not tear up your tubing nearly as much as a standard hose clamp! Ideal for situations where you need to remove tubing from fittings to sanitize.
Please note, as the reviews will also tell you, this is a clamp that will fit 1/2" OD tubing. If you are looking for a clamp for 1/2" ID (with 3/4" OD) choose the H955 clamp.

This versatile little filter is a beer maker's insurance policy! Whether you’re aerating or racking you will appreciate having the peace-of-mind of knowing that your brew will not be contaminated by whatever is floating around in the air. Use it anywhere you need to keep something sanitary. Both 1/4"" and 3/8"" tubing will attach to it, and it will snugly fit in any standard stopper as well.
Check out this list of suggested uses:
Airlock: The most common use might be as an airlock on any kind of fermenter. Unlike other small sanitary filters, this unit fits perfectly into a stopper. Works great for conical fermenters where air is taken in when samples are taken or trub is dumped. Using the sanitary filter as airlock also eliminates the concern of drawing air back in as hot liquid cools and contracts in a fermenter. It is not appropriate for long term storage of beer as it is not an oxygen barrier.
Inline Aeration/Oxygenation Filter: With an oxygenation or aeration system, such as our FE375 or FE380, it will filter contaminants out of oxygen or air. It is connected inline between pump/O2 tank and Stainless Diffusion Stone.
Hand Pumps: Some breweries use this filter with the breweries hand pump system. Air going back into the cask is sanitized through this filter. This has extended shelf life of Real Ales by up to 2 weeks!
CO2 Filtration: Used inline with your CO2 Kegging setup, this piece can be used to filter out any potential contaminants from your CO2 Tank.
About the inline filters: There are two sides to the filter - an "in" and an "out". The direction you use doesn't matter, however, you want to take note of which way you first push air through it and always keep it that way. There is an arrow on the edge of the filter housing that we use to keep the airflow going one direction when using it. The filter should never get wet, so don't try and sanitize it by dunking it in sanitizer. If you want to clean the outside of it, use Alpet D2. To store the filter, use a little tinfoil on the "In" of the filter and store in a zip-lock bag. Can last up to 1 year. Discard if there are any signs of discoloration.
This product qualifies as a HEPA filter under US government standards.
STORE DRY AT ALL TIMES. DO NOT SANITIZE FILTER.

A new 5 lb CO2 tank is one of the required purchases when you’re changing over from bottling to kegging your beer.
This brand new 5 lb aluminum CO2 tank ships free in the 48 contigous states. Aluminum tanks will never rust, which is why we prefer them over steel tanks. The capacity refers to the amount of compressed (liquified) CO2 the tank can hold. 5 lbs of CO2 is enough to dispense 8 to 9 5-gallon kegs of homebrew.
All new CO2 tanks are shipped empty and will require either filling or exchanging for a full tank. Most local homebrew shops will stock gas to exchange, and many local welding supply companies can fill tanks on site.
CO2 tanks should always be stored in an upright position.
Dimensions: 14.33" Tall x 5.25" wide.

Stainless lock down mechanism to adjust height
Compression Silicone Bung to form airtight seal with barrel
Adjustable lees pin
Transfer wine out of a barrel using inert gas to reduce oxidization with our Gas Transfer Tool. After using most all similar tools on themarket, we took what we liked and disliked and made our own. Obviously we love the price!... but perhaps more impressive is the polished finish and the excellent quality welds. We sell it without a sight-gauge welded in or attached. We found it easier to clean without a welded in place sight-gauge. We also found that most wineries already had other sight-gauges in the winery and did not need it included. Of course it is available as an option, (sight-gauge H664, clamp H652, gasket, h656.) Replacement gaskets and parts in stock and available.

Acrylic is safe for long exposure to ABV up to 15%. It is safe up to 30% ABV for short periods of time (10 minutes or so). Not safe to expose acrylic to more than 30% ABV. Exceeding those limits will damage the Acrylic and could potentially leach into liquid. If you need to exceed these limits, we recommend using a stainless racking cane.
Getting a siphon started can be one of the biggest hassles that homebrewers face. There are endless methods you can try that usually end in a siphoning disaster. If this sounds familiar you will LOVE this Sterile Siphon Starter! No sucking the end of the tube, no plungers with faulty gaskets, no shaking, no filling up the tube with unsterilized water, nothing to break, no contamination, no disturbing the sediment, and no fuss!
Simply blow into the sterile filter, which slightly pressurizes the carboy, forcing beer to flow up the racking cane and out the tubing, thus starting your siphon. This is hands down superior to the numerous other methods of starting a siphon (and we have tried them all!)
This size will also work for larger-mouthed plastic carboys!
How to Use: Attach the Sterile Siphon starter assembly by firmly pushing the carboy hood over the mouth of the carboy. Slide the stainless racking cane to the desired depth, just about the sediment level and blow into the white, sanitary air filter for 2-3 seconds until you have a solid flow of beer running out the tubing. There is no need to worry about contamination from your mouth, as the sanitary filter removes 99.98% of airborne bacteria.

Why This is a Great Pump:
Self-Priming
Heat Tolerant materials to 212°F when used with Silicone tubing
Speed Control!
Gentle Diaphragm Design
Self Priming: This pump is capable of pumping gasses, meaning that pumping does not require priming! This makes transfers between carboys or kegs incredibly easy. Simply put both inlet and outlet hoses in a bucket of sanitizer and run the pump for a minute. You're then good to transfer your beer with your sanitized pump!
Removable Pre-Filter: This is something which is almost always necessary on diaphragm pumps, as the diaphragm itself is very delicate, and can be ruined by small solids. The pre-filter included on this pump will work to keep solids out of the pump, extending the working life of the unit. And the filter can be removed between uses for cleaning.
Heat Tolerant: All materials used in the construction of the pump tolerate temperatures up to 212°F when used with heat tolerant tubing such as silicone. Because the pump comes with vinyl tubing you would need to replace that tubing with silicone.
Speed Control: Perhaps the most unique feature is a dial control to adjust flow from 0 to 3 gallons per minute. Use it to send your wort from the kettle to the fermenter, or even after fermentation to send beer through a plate filter (such as our FIL45).
Gentle on your Beer: A diaphragm pump works by moving beer through one pulsating diaphragm into the next. It is a design that is very gentle on the liquid being pumped.
When this pump was first introduced to us, we loved the idea, but had concerns that the speed control would compromise the longevity of the motor. We've built much larger pumps and normally you need a $700 frequency drive to control motor speed. However, we've been selling this pump since the mid-2000s and it continues to perform well and receive excellent customer feedback.
This pump comes with 1/2" barbed ports for easy connectivity
Comes with 4' tubing on both sides
Heat Tolerant materials to 212°F (when used with silicone tubing)
110 Volts, 0.5 Amp, 60 Hz.
Perfect size for siphoning or bottling from a gallon jug. Takes 5/16" tubing (see YMAN section below).
Instructions:
Sanitize and rinse your Auto Siphon.
Get the inner tube gasket and the outer tube wet.
Attach the curved siphon to a hose.
Submerge the end of Auto Siphon into your container.
If bottling directly, attach the correct bottle for the tubing you are using and place it inside your bottle wand. Otherwise place the the tubing into the container you're racking to.
Pull the inner tube up until the liquid fills the tube.
Pump the inner tube down and siphon will begin.
Pull out the inner tube and sanitize your Auto Siphon for storage.
Our standard 1/2" racking cane tips will work with this product, see our You Might Also Need section below for product information.
Siphon starter for transferring liquids and bottling. Very easy to use and sanitize. A single stroke starts the siphon without disturbing the sediment. Precision designed for smooth, leak-free operation.

About the White Sterile Filter: There are two sides to the filter - an "in" and an "out". The direction you use doesn't matter, however, you want to take note of which way you first push air through it and always keep it that way. There is an arrow on the edge of the filter housing that we use to keep the airflow going one direction when using it. The filter should never get wet, so don't try and sanitize it by dunking it in sanitizer. If you want to clean the outside of it, use Alpet D2. To store the filter, use a little tinfoil on the ""In"" of the filter and store in a zip-lock bag.
STORE DRY AT ALL TIMES. DO NOT SANITIZE FILTER.
