Kev what's the water charges like up your way? Might be forced to move if Bligh and the Moreton council continue to apply the screws ever tighter to SEQ residents, becoming totally unaffordable to live in Brisbane area now, with water charges now looking like $30 a WEEK ffs.
I will often give them a quick clean and get them back into service.
Firstly thou, when the keg is empty I leave it full of CO2 and in the fridge if possible. So if the beer in it was not infected, the keg is ok.
Sounds like you are doing a good job.
Have to remind you that all home brew is infected to some extent. It is just a matter of if the yeast has overpowered the infection.
I think your method of flushing with tap water is a good start. A squirt of StarSan is just the icing on the cake.
Have to remember that some are using tank water and who knows what is lurking in that?
