Futile Brewing Practises

[GAM]

I disassemble my kegs every use. It's surprising how much stuff can be stuck inside the posts, and how much crud builds up inside the dip tube. I use a sight glass cleaner I purchased to brush the inside of the dip tubes.

My process is to disassemble>soak all parts in PBW>add about 4 liters of PBW mixture to keg and use the drill with carboy cleaner attachment to clean inside the keg>rinse the keg and all parts>soak parts in starsan>dump starsan in the keg>reassemble and shake the keg to mix the starsan.

Cold, hot or boiling water? I use hot.

Typically I boil about 4 liters for my PBW mixture, and continue to use it for all of the kegs as it cools down. The last batch of kegs that I cleaned I used room temperature water.
