I washed my primary right after racking to carboy. I left it out the next day, and when I came home it had smelled the entire apartment up! Embarrassingly, the apartment's repair man had come by. I was relieved to see he didn't make a comment about the stench.
I filled the bucket with lysol disinfectant cleaner and some water and let it soak a while, then scrubbed again. It is much better, but still I can scent the taint of it.
I guess that's one good reason to use glass, but until I get in the buying mood again, anyone have any tricks for really purifying these plastic primaries?
Darn stainless primaries are expensive!
