As I cant get my hand in to scrub the inside what's the best way to clean out the mould from the inside of a budget keg, I have a bendy bottle brush which has some effect but could easily miss bits I was thinking of trying the pressure washer in there but is there a better way to ensure all mould has gone before normal cleaning and sterilising
Cheers
Paul.

Re: Cleading a mouldy budget Keg
Hot, hot water, thin bleach and an overnight soak would be my suggestion, or perhaps a overnight soak with oxi ?

Cheers will give that a go, had a look through the cleaning cupboard and found some oxi fabric stain remover powder also says it can be used on tiles,... is that the stuff?

Re: Cleading a mouldy budget Keg
Thats the guy
should shift it a treat - overnight soak, hot rinse and your normal sanitising method after should see you right.
I'd recommend that you remove, dismantle and soak the tap seperately too - if your keg is mouldy, lord knows what is growing in the hidden nooks of the tap !
