Grolsch Style Bottle Cleaner

Can't find one, help!

I just use a carboy brush to get stubborn particles off the glass. I suppose you could use a tablespoon of oxy and hot water if it was really caked on the bottle.

the site says carboy cleaner will not fit in Grolsch bottles

I get my carboy brush inside the grolsch bottles.

As a matter of fact just last night actually.

I have several dozen Grolsch style bottles and just use the same bottle brush I use for everything else with no issues.

I just squeezed the metal ring at the brush end on mine in order to get it to fit. Or you could go to the store (regular grocery store/walmart/target/etc.) and get a bottle brush from there. Chances are that will work just fine too.

If the bottles are nasty, give them a soak in PBW/oxy and then rinse.

What site and what cleaner? I've cleaned them before with no problems, like the others here.

I've had the [500ml] swing/flip top bottles come with smaller openings than long neck bottles. I haven't checked the 1L bottles in some time.

Ok I'll order the Carboy brush. It better work or I'll hunt you down

Not a carboy brush- a 'bottle brush'. The carboy brush is angled, for cleaning carboys.

I just mix up some oxyclean or pbw solution, fill them up about a third of the way, close the lid and give them a good shake. Let them sit for about 10 minutes or so and rinse them well. They're sparkling clean after that that, no brush needed.

People still use bottle and carboy brushes?

I use this.



Jet bottle and carboy washer.

And if you get yours made by the Jet Bottle and Carboy Washer Company of Traverse City Michigan, it comes with a lifetime warranty. I had mine actually break after 7+ years of use, sent it to them and got a shiny new one in the mail a week later.

I need a mechanical type cleaner bought my bottles used and some have some "stuff " on the bottom. I have used the Carboy bottle cleaner, PBW, hot water etc etc etc. I need a brush!!!!
