Idophore

[Dark_Ale]

I use idophore and left it in my bucket over night. It turned my bucket and my siphone hose kinda yellow. Will this hurt anything. Will my bucket still be ok for primary fermentation?

A lot of my equip has sat in iodophor and is yellowish from it. The stain won't harm anything.

What about rinsing? I never rinse I just pour out the idophore and get out as much as I can then siphon my beer right on top. Do you think this would cause any weird flavors?

That's a topic that generally draws debate (ie, rinsing nullifying the effects of the sanitizer)...I drip "dry" and use it damp. Never had a problem.

Iodophore is a no-rinse sanitizer and just as gaelone says, drip "dry" and use it damp. Just be sure to follow the procedure on the bottle.
