Thanks for the responses guys.
I didn't have time to go looking for some suitable bulk noname oxygen bleach
as I had the beginner's keen impatience to get things going so grabbed the
Coopers. I didn't think to rinse the fermenter for my first brew (which turned
out ok, have already been tucking into it a week after bottling
). I did put
in about a cup of water for a quick complete slosh round for my second brew
today (Muntons Irish Style ... so looking forward for this to be ready!).
Didn't even consider feeling the fermenter insides after bleaching it since
touching it seems like defeating the purpose of sanitising it in the first
place ... fingers crossed this second brew will turn out ok, it's bubbling
away right now - so cute. Anyways, will look at getting the proper sanitisers
for next time.
I wasn't sure about tipping the H2O2 waste liquid into the garden/lawn
- wouldn't bleach be very bad for plants?
Cheers!
