Review on OneBom Stainless Steel Beer Bottle Filler - Food Grade Bottling Wand for Beer & Wine (Counter Pressure) by Jon Higdem

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Okay, but the hose barbs could be better.

In general, I like it. It works as intended. Easy to clean/use etc. The only thing I can fault is the notched hardware. Although they are made of stainless steel, the quality is not very good. The ridges along the beard that ensure a proper seal are smooth and indistinct. Because of this I had to put some clamps on the hose connected to the fittings to prevent leaks. This isn't as important with a liquid line, as the inner diameter of the Bev tube is a bit narrower and the liquid has a higher surface tension and therefore doesn't flow out as easily. But if you are using "standard" 1/4" ID siphon tubing for the gas lines then be careful! The description says 1/4" fittings but I have shown in the drawings how real 1/4 are "Faucets should look like this.. Attention! It's not a "broken" product, but you should definitely check it out if you're spending $50 on it. Everything else about this setup is great, I'm me not sure why they skimped on tubing ridges.

Pros
  • One-year trial
Cons
  • For old
