Bleaching the fermenter

[BRUbaker]

Can i clean the fermenter with bleach before putting it away.

Just secondaried my 6th batch. Won't be using the fermenter (6.5 gal plastic brew bucket) for at least 2 months. i always soap clean then starsan all equip between batches. Would like to super clean after the 6 brews.

Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving

I just clean and rinse mine out immediately after transferring. It won't hurt to clean it with bleach, but I don't think it really matters much.

Same here, just soap and water. To bleach my buckets would be like removing the seasoning on my cast iron cookware.
