Hello!
So I've made one batch of beer so far and have wild yeast cider going in the carboy right now. I sanitized every thing with the sanitizer that came in the kit the first time but was pestering my wife for time/car to get some more(so I could sanitize my carboy for the cider) when she asked why I didn't just make up a bleech solution? So I tried it and, while my cider is wild yeast any way, it definitely is fermenting. So is the a reason bleech water is not more commonly used? If one of the pirks to home brewing is less expensive, better tasting beer, why not save on sanitizer and use up some of that bleech we all have in our house any way?
