Hi All, nervous brewer here about to embark on my first foray into all grain. I am actually returning to brewing after a very long hiatus and I have a Counter-flow Wort Chiller that I apparently did not clean properly after its last use probably about 5 years ago, so I am wondering if I might have done some irreparable harm to it. It was blocked by crap to the point water would not flow through it, but I was able to unblock it via an air compressor and I ran a bunch of water through until the water was clear. Then I ran Star San solution through it and left the solution in the chiller for about 24 hours. The water still appears clear but I would hate to have an issue because of this chiller. Do you think I am good with what I have done to sanitize it or should I try some other stuff just to be sure? I was thinking of running 10-15 gallons boiling water through it and or even some of the boiling Star San solution (I dont have PBW).
Thanks for the help
