For those of you who use Hydrogen Peroxide sanitizer, I have devised 2 very simple tests to see if it is still viable as a sanitizer

It works on the basic principle that when it comes in contact with blood it foams up, and when you spray it on a cut it stings like hell


Method No 1

The painfull method

Find some sort of cutting instrument and make your self bleed. You can either stab your self or make a cut in your skin.

Spray on the sanitizer and if the blood foams and it stings like hell, your sanitizer is still good

Method 2
The painless method

Grab your mate

Find some sort of cutting instrument and stab or cut him

Spray on the sanitizer and if the blood foams and he sqeeuls like a pig, then your sanitizer is good

If he askes why you stabed him, just say " Hey, do you want to be my best mate or not"
 
That's TOO funny. Lets find a volunteer to verify this method, (although we know it will, my old man used to through peroxide at all our childhood injuries, I have the scars to prove it......:) )
 
As Richie would say; "Marvellous!"
 
Does it have to be fresh blood?

I can just see some brewers keeping pigs blood in their fridges like vampires to test their sanitizer :D
