Dustin Frothman Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 Just checking with the brains trust before I make a purchase. Fairly sure I've read here and elsewhere that as a general "cleaner" Sodium Percarbonate is the preferred product to use alongside your sanitising solution. Can someone please confirm?

Confirm, all brewing equipment, even the hop bombs or hop bags. A bit of hot water at first helps to dissolve it, need to soak for a while (active about 6 hours but can leave overnight until required. Rinse off before putting away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul84 Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Hey Mate , yeah i use the SP for bottle cleaning . I find it leaves a few soapy marks but once sanitized the insides are sparkly clean. I know Mark has mentioned a good practice is also to rinse as soon as you finish the bottles if you can with hot water and let air dry upside down and the bottle clean isnt as important 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a set of the Coopers PET bottles that came with the kit but I don't really plan on bottling much but this is good to know anyway should I change my mind during the journey. I know bottling a portion of a brew allows you to taste at intervals along the way so perhaps I will try that at some stage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul84 Posted June 25, 2020 Report Share Posted June 25, 2020 I am kegging half mine and bottling the other half . But i do think there is something awesome about pulling a pint from your own kegs 😁 . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
