I'd not purchased a stainless steel braid encased line for an appliance in a long while.
I picked one up at the borg today thinking to make a Mash Tun filter.
It looked like SST but when I got it apart (yah I cut it up) I found that the SST braid was some polymer made to fool the eye.
I don't know what the polymer is or what compounds were used to color it so, I don't know if I can trust it as a filter.
Beware: Make sure your so called SST braided hose is really sheathed in a SST braid and not some impostor.
It'll be hard to get them to take it back after you cut the ends off and yank the inner tubing out.
