I been brewing for years and have always used bleach to sanitize my stuff. The price is right, it's easy to use and I've never had any problems with infections, but I'm a little tired of all the rinsing and having to soak stuff for a fairly long time. I'm also concerned about the envrionmental consequences.
I've started to think about switching to a diiferent santitizer but am not sure where to begin. My priorities are:
1) Effective - MUST be an effective sanitizer
2) ease of use - i.e. easy to mix, no rinse, no special protective gear required
3) speed - i.e. dip a spoon into it, wait a few seconds and you're good to go
4) cost
5) longevity of mixed solution - how long can I keep the solution in a spray bottle or bucket and still have it work
So, what are you follks using? What are the pros and cons of the vatious products out there?
