I packaged a Kolsch directly from my Blichmann conical, life got in the way, the remains got infected, and now I have a mess to clean and sanitize.
What is the most effective way to clean and sanitize it? I usually clean all my equipment right after brewing with Oxyclean and hot water and I'm good to go. If something gets leftover until the next day I might use some PBW and hot water and let it soak for a bit. I've never had an infection cleaning equipment using this protocol but with the existing infection from sitting around too long will PBW be enough? I will disassemble everything including the ball valve. I'm on septic so I don't use bleach and wouldn't anyways with the stainless.
