Does anyone else obsess over this. After reading up on somethings I've recently decided to take matters in my own hands at home, I've always thought I kept my beer glasses clean but boy was I wrong. I did the salt test on it and failed miserably, which would explain why my lacing stank on my homebrew.
Anyway for the last day or so I've been putting Easy Clean in my glasses at various points. I got the idea from the need of something that's low suds (no suds FTW) and and odorless. While not 100% odorless it's pretty dang close. They sell stuff that like the bars use but it's expensive like 35 bucks for 8 pounds of it. I figure easy clean should in theory both clean and sanitize the glasses with over 30 minutes of contact time. I'm gonna experiment with this because Easy Clean I can get a 5 pound bucked for 14 bucks and that's more reasonable if it gives me great long term results (because of sanitation) If not I'll bit the bullet and get the Beer Clean Glass Cleaner things and then go with a 3 step system (cleaner and scrub, then cold water, than sanitizer which I'd just use Star San)
