Random question?

Just got a braided hose for a hop filter. Seen a video online where a bloke shows you how to perforate the rubber hose and break it off so you can use the fitting to screw direct on to a copper fitting. Anyway, my question is, will the little bit of rubber that's left on be a problem? I'm thinking not as they are designed for hot water anyway. Just don't want it to mess up my mash. Cheers

I've moved this to brewing equipment, hopefully you may get a response now. Sorry that I can't help on this one, I use a copper strainer myself.

Sorry mate, thought I'd posted in equipment

I doubt it'd be good in an acidic environment. No idea what it's made of though

as you can buy the braid naked on ebay ( sold as automotive sleeving) by the meter its generally easier and cheaper to use that..

No problem, all part of the service.

Sorry if a bit late but just get the plain braid off ebay and attach. Here's mine:
