So long story short, i forgot about my brew bag after a session and now it has a bunch of mold growing on it. Is there anything I can soak it in to completely rid it of the mold, or am I SOL?
I've heard of people washing it in a washing machine, boiling it, using other cleaning methods. Personally I'd get a new one. The bag is the first thing I clean once the boil starts.
I say use it... toss a $30 bag that doesn't have a hole it it...? not me. I did the same thing and just soaked it in bleach water, then starsan. It's fine.
I left my bag full of spent grains in my side yard for 2 days once after a late night of brewing/drinking with buddies. No idea who put it over there. Had all kinds of bugs crawling thru it when I found it but no holes or damage, and my first thought was to just toss it. Gave it a hard spray and quick bleach bath then thru the washer and it is still being used.
