Just got a 5 gal. Cornelius Keg setup. I've been watching YouTube videos on cleaning and force carbing the keg. My question, is it really safe to clean w/ StarSan then rack without rinsing?
I always sanitize and rinse all my equipment and bottles and never had an off flavor brew. I see people use StarSan and rack to keg with soapy StarSan foam in it as well as their siphon and tubing with StarSan not rinsed. No off flavors or other issues. I'm kegging a Saison for my friend's bachelor party tomorrow and want to make sure it has a nice Belgian yeast flavor and not a sudsy soaping flavor.
