Oxiclean!?!!!

I expect the kegs are aluminium. Star San should be ok but don't leave it soaking. Oxiclean would also be ok (again without prolonged soaking). Heat sanitisation would be good as well. You should definately not use bleach on metals.

I'd just use a kettle of boiling water. I use it on anything anyway - bottles, FVs, PBs etc. but it would be very effective in a metal keg as metal conducts heat so well.

Thinking about it, that could be calcium oxalate deposits (beer stone). You would need a strong acid to remove that e.g. brick cleaner. (Again, nitrile gloves and eye protection needed!)

New bottles.
Simpler, safer, possibly cheaper. :lol:

If anyone is a member of Makro's and you use Oxiclean they are selling 2kg tubs for £3.50 or buy two for £6, I am not up on Oxiclean prices but it seemed like a good deal to me so I got the two for £6

I use the Wilko one, it's also fragrant-free

I need some Oxy, I think I'll try this one this time.

you might like to look for Sodium Percarbonate .... its the same stuff. I can get hold of it in health food / organic shops. Its an eco friendly cleaning agent
