Hi all,
I'm about to brew my first beer and have a quick question about my steriliser before I go ahead!
I'm using VWP and am confused about how much to use. It says 1-2 teaspoons per gallon which is fine, but I've read contradicting advice that says once you've made the gallon up and poured it in, then fill the rest of the fermenting vessel with cold water.
But surely this dilutes the VWP so much that it's ineffective? Should I use more VWP or should I slosh the gallon around so all surfaces have been splashed?
Thanks in advance!
