Re: Star San on fermenters
Thanks. Have used it on my glass secondary fermenter and all looks well so far. However, will continue to use steam on my plastic primary as I have two taps on there and fear that spray won't reach those nooks and crannies.
Could make up a 5L solution and splash it around in there I suppose then drain it out the taps?

Re: Star San on fermenters
are they Plastic taps?
I always take my taps out when cleaning and spray with Starsan before screwing them back onto the FV, so all the nooks and crannies are thoroughly soaked
