Much faster than 3/8"
I just recently stepped up from my first 5/16" auto siphon. I can't believe it took me this long to do it. There is no reason for the 5/16" one, honestly. Just get this one first. It makes racking from primary to secondary much quicker. Like others have said, run the tubing under hot water for a little bit, and it will go over the cane easily. Do the same when taking it off, and you'll be fine.

Racks fast
Using this siphon is not only super easy, it's fast, taking just a few minutes. _x000D_After using I run soapy water through it, then rinse, then star san. Before using I run Star San through it, including all the way up to the top.

Essential Piece
For under fifteen bucks, you can't beat it. I know I have siphoned hundreds of gallons through mine. It is still in good, functional, condition. I use Star San to sanitize all of my plastic brewing equipment, and none have developed any hairline cracks. I would highly recommend this piece of equipment.

Delicate
Its really useful, but its delicate. Not just at the curved plastic end, but if you let it slip, it can crack. I bought a spare to have just in case.

handle with care
I've had one of these for about 5 years, but finally broke the plastic inner cane at the bend this past weekend (while cleaning it). Ordering another, as its an essential. I wish they made this in SS, so I wouldn't have to worry about breaking it!

Much faster than 3/8" autosiphon
This is a great upgrade from a 3/8"autosiphon. A quicker transfer means less exposure to oxygen and less risk of contamination.

Fast!
I've been using the smaller auto siphon for a few years now and thought it was great. I bought this one to save some time and it does just that. It sucks down a carboy in less than half the time. Mine did lose its check valve, though, but I found it on the floor and reinstalled it using a tent pole and some masking tape to hold it in place. Otherwise it would've been nearly impossible to repair.

Transfers beer a lot faster than the 3/8 model
I really like it. Its easy to use and its not hard to take care of. After using it I place it in a pot of water and pump some water through it so no sugar sticks to it. When I'm done bottling, I pump more soapy water through it, to clean it out. Just keep pumping. Dump the water, and pump some more.

Auto Siphon
Great tool, simplifies the siphoning process, and makes it hassle free. They do wear out and break though, I'm on my third one, but thats over about 9 years.

does this come with the vinyl tubing?
A A on Mar 5, 2016
BEST ANSWER: Hello,

This is just the auto-siphon, the vinyl tubing must be purchased separately. https://www.midwestsupplies.com/1-2-id-siphon-hose.html
What happens when you can't get the siphon to get out the last gallon? It stayed in the liquid, but stopped siphoning and with repeated pumping, I can't get it to siphon again.
A shopper on Jan 8, 2017
BEST ANSWER: Make sure what you are siphoning into is lower than what you are siphoning out of. Gravity still plays a part in this. I usually put my carboy on the counter and my bottling bucket on the floor. I've never had a problem.
how long is this?
A shopper on Aug 29, 2017
BEST ANSWER: without pulling it out to measure, my husband and I would say about 14-16 inches... it fits into our 1 gallon bottle and has enough room to stick out.
is there a silicone tubing option available for this 1/2" auto siphon?
Steven S on Mar 7, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Good luck finding it, mine's never been used because I haven't been able to find tubing.
Is there a silicone tubing option that will work with 1/2” auto siphon?
A shopper on Mar 7, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Yes! I was able to find tubing at a hardware store that worked. The major worry that I have with this setup is sterilization.
