If you guys saw how I sanitize, you would probably shit your pants. The only things I sanitize are the things that sees my wort after the boil.

Thats about what I do.  Sanitize for after thrr boil, everything else just gets cleaned with dish soap at the end of brewday and its good to go for next time.  We've had one batch out of about 30 that went sour after about 3 months but we added non sanitized vanilla beans to secondary.  I've only been worrying more about bottles lately, I'm thinking about rinsing and drying in the dishwasher to kill lbugs with heat. 


Did you add the vignetting to those brewing pics in PS lol.

dish soap is probably the WORST thing you can use to clean brewing equipment. -from experience. if its working for you, I guess continue to use it. But they make a brewing cleaner for a reason. If you cant afford the brewing cleaners, at least go with oxy clean.

and no, the camera did the vignetting. You see my ad for the $2k camera...lol.

I'm debating on using Star-san or Iodophor... seems to be the top 2 picks.  Leaning towards Iodophor because it's cheaper.

Nice setup, Frank.  I wish I had the space, lol.

I know you had a good camera thats why I asked, did you use the wrong lens hood or an old lens, New DSLRs with kit lenses don't get vignetting.  I think it looks cool thats why I am asking.  I've used my dads D200 for a while, I'm thinking about getting a D3000 or D5000.

For the longest time the "sanitizer" I was using was actually just a cleaner lol, I noticed after the 3rd or 4th batch.

sterilization can be a bitch.  I used steam to sterilize jars before.  Wasn't making beer though...

Jars eh?  Substrate too?
