Star San in Bottle Rinser

[Bartmannj]

Hi Everyone,
I recently bought two new products for my homebrewing arsenal: Star San and a bottle rinser. I'm wondering, because Star San should be left for a minute in whatever is being sanitized, are a few sprays of the solution using the bottle rinser enough? I'm planning to experiment with all this for the first time next week on a new batch and don't want to ruin it.
Thanks,
Bart

Once the bottle is wet with Star San, it's working. You don't need to soak it for any length of time, just get it wet.

If you are using starsan you don't need to rinse the bottles. Just dip/soak them in the starsan, dump them out and fill with beer.

Starsan requires a very short contact time to kill, in fact it is actually shorter than the FDA mandated contact time on the lable. And since it is a no rinse/wet contact sanitizer as long as the walls of the bottle, or whatever you are sanitizing are wet with the stuff, then it's doing it's job.

Yea, I heard the manufacturer talking about StarSan on Brewstrong, he said 30 seconds contact time will do it.

I primed my racking cane with Starsan the other day. This next keg will be the most sanitized keg I've ever had by far! Bartmannj, you're good to go.
