Like Florian says above, but I find it better to let the fermenter sit upside down. It drains better.Florian said:Also, if you're worried, just put the lid or glad wrap on your fermenter and leave it standing for a while.
Most of the foam will 'oh so magically' turn into sanitising solution over time which you can just pour out before you fill your fermenter.
EDIT: Just like a bubble bath.
Phosphoric acid is also a rust converter when used in a solution and percentage that is specific to rectifying oxidisation of metals.Ducatiboy stu said:Star san contains phosphoric acid. Same stuff they use in coke.

Used it for a converter prior to spraying epoxy over bare steel. Give a phosphorous coating that helps the epoxy stick and stop further rust.bradsbrew said:Phosphoric acid is also a rust converter when used in a solution and percentage that is specific to rectifying oxidisation of metals.
