Hi all.
Firstly, I'm more of a lurker than a poster and just wanted to convey my thanks to this forum for all of the helpful info contributed by all of the members. My first four AGs have been pretty hassle free thanks to the troubleshooting this forum provides!
I have an old, spare fermenter lying around and had an idea of using it as a sanitising vessel. The idea would be to fill it up with a slighlty higher concentration of no-rinse sanitiser, and any gear like hoses, spoons, taps, airlocks, whatever could be chucked in here for storage after it had been cleaned. That way, they're already sanitised when I need them.
Can anyone see any problems with leaving something in sanitiser this long? Plastic degredation maybe? Sanitiser losing its potency? I remember reading somewhere that most of the time sanitiser can be reserved and reused, which is what led to the idea in the first place.
Cheers!
