Non Toxic Cleaner

[NegFerret]

Hi,

I'm looking for a non toxic cleaner to use when cleaning brewing vessels. I have been using an alkaline chlorine based cleaner, and tried PBW today, but have decided I'd like to look for something that won't hurt the pets.

I use starsan for sanitise.

Cheers!

"Wont hurt the pets"...WTF are you doing with it?

I'm worried about, for instance dropping PBW crystals on the floor, and the pets treading on it and then licking their paws. Similarly, when I throw stuff down the drain. I'm getting paranoid about it as a pet died from walking through a puddle of antifreeze under someone's car.

I think I'm going to go for sodium carbonate as it appears to be non toxic.

I'll do some proper research into it!

our cat has trapped thru a few spills of laundry oxi my favoured brewkit cleaner, and she is still purring strong..

I use VWP and some normally gets on the kitchen floor. I still have all 5 of my cats. I've also caught one of them drinking from the toilet just after it had been cleaned with bleach (the toilet, not the cat)
