Is rubber washer safe in mash while fermenting?

Post by ab2 »

While cleaning my Anvil bucket I lost the inside white plastic washer that goes on the inside nut of the spigot. Found a rubber one that fits perfect but didn't know if there are issues with rubbber.

It probably won't make you sick but makes me think of drinking out of a garden hose on a summer afternoon ummm rubber.
