Problem With Mould In My Fermenting Fridge

[Munut]

After cleaning spray with Glenn 20. I find that it keeps the mould at bay.

Thats all I do; hold my breath. Not sure if there is a better way. Also this mix is excellent for cleaning the bathroom tiles.

It's cool to watch when you add it together the mix goes greenish, and after a day it clears back up.

Gee, possibly a bit dangerous mixing Bleach and vinegar together due to the chlorine gas released.

I usually mix about 500ml of water with 100ml vinegar, then add 100ml bleach to the 600ml. Much safer. Seems to kill most bugs and doesn't stink up the place for too long.

From my understanding, the vinegar lowers the pH allowing the chlorine in the bleach to work more effectively. During a Basic Brewing podcast with the Starsan guys they indicated that 1.6ml bleach, 1.6ml Vinegar in 1 litre of water was the correct concentration for sanitisation. Obviously disinfecting would require a higher concentration.
