Mouldy brew gear

Post by Scotty » Fri Jan 13, 2012 8:55 am

I am about to do my first brew in 3 months and yesterday I went into the brewshed to find everything was mouldy. I'm not so bothered about vessels but I am a little worried about pipework, fittings, pump etc.

Obviously I don't want any infections to spoil my brewday so what would you suggest I do to clean my gear? I was thinking bleach soak, wash thouroughly, fire boiling water through, then peracetic.
