How do people clean a pot like this after mashing?

Elysium · Jan 18, 2015

I am about to buy this pot, but there is one thing I dont understand: how do people clean the spent grains from such a pot? Or even clean and sanitize it without moving it? It's big....800 liters (211 gallons).

I am planning to get 2...one for mashing and another one for boiling....pumps will do all the moving of the liquid, but then again....I have no clue how to clean them.

Any ideas?

They are out of stock, so unless you bought the last 2, or have another vendor, looks like you will have time to figure it out.

I'm thinking some form of ladder-scoop-bucket combination might do the trick of removing spent grains. Spray nozzles, hoses, cleansers and liquid sanitizers are all keen ideas for washing and sanitizing. Or a midget with a scotch brite pad. Whatever your budget allows.

I think they are likely to restock it till Sept 2015.

So, I guess the "I am about to buy" part should not be interpreted as "right now I am buying".

Very good idea Archie. I have been thinking of hiring the team from Willy Wonka for some time.
