I picked up some cornies from CHI and did as suggested. The insides were very clean but good lord did they reek of soda pop. I dismantled them, filled them up with very hot water and Oxyclean and scrubbed them with a long brush. I let these soak for 24 hours before rinsing them and filled them up with a heavy idophor solution. This solution sat in the kegs for 2 weeks and I rotated the keg regularly to be sure both the top and bottom got sanitized.
I went to open up the kegs today and they smell no different now than they did the day I got them...Dr. Pepper and 7-Up. I'm not sure what else I can do over and above what I've already done here.
At what point do I give up this madness? Should I just say screw it and keg my beer or will this heavy odor work its way into the beer solution as it sits in the keg?
Thoughts?
