I may be in the minority here but I literally hate starsan. After using iodophor for sanitation for over three years with no infections whatsoever I decided to give starsan a try. This was a big mistake...here are a few of the things that I dislike about it:
1. When filling my kegs all of the foam prevents me from seeing where the beer level is.
2. When filling carboys about 4 gallons in the foam starts to back up into the funnel preventing the beer from flowing into the carboy resulting in obnoxious bubbling over. The "bubble over" gets all over the carboy and then I have to clean it off and my floor as well.
3. One time when using dry yeast I forgot to put the yeast in before filling the carboy with the wort and now it was literally stuck on top of all of the foam.
4. It makes a huge mess everywhere.
All of this for just so I don't have to rinse? NO THANKS
Does anyone else feel the same about it??
