Hello all,
I ferment 11 gals of homebrew in sanke kegs (where the spear is removed). I love using these vessels for fermention. The only problem, however, is the krausen residue left inside the fermenter. It's difficult to look inside the keg, and even harder to clean the trouble areas with a brush. I've soaked my fermenter with oxyclean for days (recently 4 days), scrubbing incessantly as long as I can, but it doesn't seem to remove any of the residue.
Any other options I can use that may help dissolve the krausen residue? Maybe some sort of caustic cleaner? Any suggestions would greatly help.
Thanks!
