How do you clean your keggles after each use? and how do you keep it clean between your brews? I think I have been neglecting this issue a bit.
 
After the wort is in the bucket I rinse the keggle well with a garden hose. Then a few swipes with a scrub pad to get the "gunk ring" around the top and scrub the bottom where the burner tends to leave a little burnt on stuff.

After that, another good rinse, then I store the keggle upside down to both drain and keep the debris and critters out. Another quick rinse before the next use and you're good to go.
 
I usually use hose water to rinse and a yellow/green sponge wipe it off. I let it dry and the put the lid on to store. My stand is stored in my garage which is also my workshop, so there is always saw dust and stuff flying around. I rinse / wipe it out before use.
