Liquid bleach is a sodium hypochlorite solution. When pure, such a solution does not produce suds when shaken. It looks like some of the liquid bleach available in Australian retail outlets contains detergents, even though they are not listed among the "active" ingredients. For example, Coles bleach produces lots of suds. I posted a question about possible detergent residues to White King on their website and have received no answer.
Liquid bleach remains a cheap and effective cleaner for glass, but I don't want residues screwing up head retention. Does anyone know of liquid bleaches that are free from detergents and available in Australia?
Oxyper is great, and I use it on fermenters and brew kettles, but expensive for cleaning a rack of bottles.
Not all detergents leave residues, In a lab where I worked we had detergents we used on glassware used for analyses, and they had to rinse clean. But the typical dishwater detergents are very hard to wash out. Try them on your hair, let it dry, and comb. You'll see. My worry is the same detergents end up in liquid bleach.
