What is the formula if using real TSP? I have this at work
I just do a straight sub of tsp for tsp 90
There never was. It was banned quickly before the algae bloom conjecture was exposed as conjecture.
I have used the homemade mix on glass with no problem. I am not sure, but I think that warning is in place because TSP is usually used as a no-rinse surface cleaner. In that application, it will leave film on glass. A PBW-style soak & rinse seems to be a different kettle of fish.
I would test it first though, and definitely be careful about letting this cleaner dry out on any surface.
@ Trevster......
Not been on the thread in a while.........Is there a "finalized" recipe that these folks are seeming happy with?
Thanks!
This one from page 2 is the one I've been using for quite some time now. Mixing up a fresh batch tomorrow actually!
96 ounces of Sun Cleaner
35.5 TSP
39oz of Seventh Generation dish washer powder
Is this correct?

Like I said earlier in the thread, I follow this recipe exactly and have always had great results. That's...
96 oz of Oxygen cleaner (OXO cleaner from Costco)
64 oz of Red Devil TSP/90 (Ace Hardware)
40 oz of Seventh Generation Powdered Dishwashing Detergent (Amazon/soap.com)
I use 96 ounces OXO (Sun Cleaner)
64 ounces of TSP/90 (red devil)
40 ounces Seventh Gen (auto dish soap powder free & clear)
Everything is avail. on Amazon if you use "Prime" it's not bad. The free and clear OXO clean on amazon is only 57.6 ounces, so I reduced my last batch to match that and came up with:
57.6 ounces OXO clean (full container)
38.4 ounces TSP/90 (Red Devil)
24 ounces of Seventh Generation
That makes up 7.5 pounds of powder, and you still have TSP/90 and Seventh Gen remaining for next batch.

To me this table does not say what you just posted. I guess I'm not seeing these numbers you posted in this reply match the table.
I believe you are summing the numbers listed next to each sub-ingredient (column 4) vs. just using what it tells you to in parentheses next to each ingredient (column 1).
So you use a 4 lb bag of TSP/90, and that gives you 35.5 oz of Anhydrous Metasilicate.
Hopefully that clears it up!
Yep got it now. Looking forward to trying this stuff out and compare it to the actual PBW.
So decided to make some of this. Didn't get too detailed with ratios, just bought the below and mixed it up as it looked to be pretty close from what I've read in the previous 35 pages. Brewing tomorrow so will give it a try.
2x All Laundry Booster Free & Clear - 3.25 lbs ea = 6.5 lbs - $3.99 ea (Fry's Marketplace)
Savogran TSP - 4.5 lbs - $9.98 (Lowes)
7th Generation - 2.81lbs - $5.49 (Fry's Marketplace)
Total, $23.45 for 13.81lbs of cleaner or $1.69/lb.
Oh and a 2 gallon food safe bucket to store it in from Lowes. :rockin:
