I soak mine in PBW - usually does the trick. I don't use the hose for anything but blowoff though.

Yeah, tubing is fairly cheap. If you are tired of paying a couple of dollars for 5-6ft at a homebrew store you can always go to a hardware store and buy it by the foot! I would soak this length of tubing in PBW and buy some fresh tubing to save for transfering/bottling if you are worried about it.

I use a plastic fitting that screws on my laundry tub tap. I run hot water through it and it comes clean in no time.
