Ive been reading up on sanitizers in this forum and these seem to be the three anyone talks about.
It seems most folks have success with One Step and not too many problems with the main drawback being contact time between equipment and solution (2-3 mins.).
Star San seems to be the favorite but Ive been reading on here that over time it leaves a filmy, slightly slick residue on equipment. Is this true? I also read some people saying that it can make plastics brittle after prolonged exposure. But it has the plus side of needing only about 30 secs. of contact time.
Iodophor seems to be the least popular with someone mentioning that it stains plastics. Is there truth in that? Contact time seems to be about the same as Star San.
Which do you use and why is it the best in your opinion?
What problems/drawbacks do the other sanitizers have?
