How can a sparkler put air into the beer? My understanding is it knocks co2 out of suspension. The sparkler should be at the bottom of the glass completely submerged.Cosmic Bertie said:The sparkler puts so much air into the beer it can take 10 mins to clear! And the head stays to the bottom of the glass too.
Sodium percarbonate is the main ingredient in PBW, which produces peroxide. Peroxide is what does the cleaning and is also a strong oxidiser which can damage plastics, often making them brittle.Malted said:I am not sure that I like my BCF collapsible water containers anymore http://www.bcf.com.au/online-store/products/Collapsible-Water-Container-20L.aspx?pid=114174#Cross. The taps get hard to turn and the handle snaps off them. This was after I soaked them in PBW solution for some time. Maybe PBW makes the plastic go brittle?
I've never had that happen...though I dont use PBW on plastic....Malted said:I am not sure that I like my BCF collapsible water containers anymore http://www.bcf.com.au/online-store/products/Collapsible-Water-Container-20L.aspx?pid=114174#Cross.

You could try something else to clean them, or just use starsan for a few rinses.
Nah mate long term storage not advisable cause of oxygen permiationYob said:ere.. possible stupid question coming..
you cant barrel age then store in these polypins or collapsible container types? you could easily purge them out and fill them.. a few of these 10L jobbies would come in very handy if it was a plausible action.. somehow I doubt it though..
I rekon Im going to need a lot more kegs...
