Just wondering what peoples cleaning regimes are with your main brewery equipment.
Mainly your HLT (well nothing much needed there), MLT through to kettle.
Looking at trying a mash tun (I BIAB for now) and have been researching all the designs etc, and from what I have read and learned it seems some people pull apart everything after a brew and clean it and others flush the systems and leave them together.
When I mentioned to my Pop (fitter/turner/jack of all trades) how I was looking at putting it all together he said I should use some sealant instead (name eludes me a this point) as it would seal perfectly and is food grade too, no real need to pull it all apart for cleaning with the chemical cleaners around.
Opinions please!?
