Is 304 stainless steel not food grade? Am i missing something? Will this br safe in my kettle? Any opinions.. Thought this was ideal for a dip tube as it can be shaped by hand..

They are selling this by the metre for 11 euro

A meter is a bit long for a dip tube :-) this flexipipe will not work as a bazooka as it is not porous

That is certainly true

could cut it in half, you would get an whirlpool arm and dip tube, possibly.....
