Where to get an auto siphon that actually works

[Leard]

Clearly auto siphons are the best way to rack and bottle beer. I've only ever owned one that I got off of Amazon and frankly, it was a piece of ****. Where have people bought them and have them actually work as they're supposed to?

I have this one and it works perfectly: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01FY1HKYI/ref=cm_sw_r_apa_i_dUqUEbRYEWJCN

I have owned a few others that have either stopped half way through and required me to stir up the trub or just started letting in lots of air. Maybe they are a bit temperamental, but I've had luck with that one.

All 3 of my auto syphons have worked fine. I've always bought from a HBS supply on-line. Theres one brand where they have 3 sizes of autosyphon the middle size is the best for a 25l fv as its not too long but still gets down to the bottom. the italian auto-syphon from the same company that does the metal 2 handed bottle capper with red handles worked well too. I did put one of my autosyphons in the diswasher and that warped the seal so thats not recommended.

sorry I can't remember anything more specifically. Too much home brew
