Hey guys,
I bought a VERY used jockey box off of CL yesterday, and while I got a hell of a deal on it, once I got it home I realized that it needs some major clean up.
It looks like the last time the was used was Bush 41's administration. The beer lines were full, along with the cold plate. I trashed the lines as they're cheap enough to replace, and backwashed the cold plate until it ran clear. I'll worry about it later.
My major concern is the condition of the faucets. Take a look at these photos:
My questions:
1. What is this?
2. Is it safe to run beer through these? My first impression is obviously no.
3. How do I get rid of it? I soaked these parts all night in PBW and while they look a bit better, they're still not clean.
As always, thanks for your input...
