i just finished building my first mash tun and i was thinking about putting some silicone caulking around the rubber washer on the inside of the cooler just to be sure its nice and sealed. the tube i have at home says its okay to come in contact with food as long as its fully cured. i filled it with water and let it drain and there were no leaks but i thought the silicone would give me extra peace of mind. just curious if the hot mash would deteriorate the sealant or if the silicone all together would harm the wort?...thanks for any help.
