I have to admit it guys I have screwed up. I am disabled and cannot clean up the same day I brew. But last time I brewed was last year or the spring. After brew day was over I put everything to soak and left it. Then I got a blood clot and then my attention turned to making small batches of fruit wine. Today i found my chiller sitting in the pot I had left it in that was once full of water and either PBW or dish liquid. It is all green and corroded and with lime scale all over it. I am on a seriously tight budget to and this would put me out of brewing for a couple of months where as I wanted to do a recipe next week. Can you think of anything that would help? I was thinking of spraying it down with a bottle of CLR and then giving it a good boil a couple of times to get rid of any chemicals, but is that too dangerous or would it even work?
On the up side my aluminum and stainless big pots look redeemable with soaking and scrubbing. Dang it I just forgot the stuff. I do have a Grotto mash cooler that is going to have to be thrown away but thankfully I have two more round coolers and was thinking of going with a cheap cube anyway since I batch sparge.
