If you use bleach in hot water, it ruins its qualities as a sanitizer. Bleach is meant to be used in room temp or cooler water. However, i see that plenty of people are using it with warm water and that may work fine because the water is so hot, it is killing the bacteria on its own, but just a note, if you CAN , try to use 72 degree or cooler water when using bleach to sanitize your equipment, it will be much safer in terms of the sanitized final product.
I don't use bleach and i'm not sure I come close to condoning it near anything consumable, but i also don't condone the idea of a spoiled batch because of overheated bleach. Beer being abused due to ignorance is just wrong!
