Cleaning & sanitizing is a critical step in all stages of the winemaking process. You should sanitize any tools and equipment that will come into contact with the juice or wine.
Step 1 Cleaning:
Make sure the surface area of your equipment free of any dirt or other solids. We recommend using Powdered Brew Wash or PBW for short. PBW is a non-hazardous, buffered alkaline cleaner that will not corrode soft metals. Just remember Only clean surfaces can be sanitized!
Step 2: Sanitize:
After the surface is clean it can now be sanitized. This is done by preparing the sanitizer and pouring, wiping, or swirling on all the surfaces needing to be sanitized. It’s important to follow the manufacturers recommended contact time and dilutions rates of the sanitizer you’re using
This is a must have for any home brewer! No rinse, no worries, no contaminations!
Only requires 1 minute of contact time for effective sanitization
High-foaming to ensure maximum coverage and contact in all the nooks and crannies in larger equipment
Don't fear the foam! Residual foam in your fermenter, bottles, or kegs will have no impact on your finished beer

Star San is an acid-based sanitizer that is quick, odorless, tasteless, and safe for most materials except softer metals. As a high foamer, it’s foaming action ensures coverage and contact time in larger vessels and better penetration into nooks and crannies. Any foam that is left over in your carboy or keg will not harm your beer or you. If you plan on making some up for spray application, it is best to use distilled or RO water to maximize the life of the unused portion (minerals in tap water reduce the shelf life of Star San once in solution). If a lower foaming alternative is preferred, for bottling or multiple batches, check out Saniclean.
Use 1 oz per 5 gallons of water
Contact time of 1 minute
Completely safe and non-toxic
Will not impart any flavors or odors
Please note: Due to DOT HAZMAT shipping restrictions, orders for 15-gallon, 55-gallon, or multiple 5-gallon units will require freight shipping. These sizes are intended for commercial use. HAZMAT items are not able to be returned.
A safe alkaline cleaner for everything in your brewing universe!
PBW (Powdered Brewery Wash) is a favorite of small home breweries because it out-performs dangerous caustic chemicals without scrubbing. Just put your kettle, bottles, carboy, etc. in for a good long soak and watch dirt, krausen and any other organic material simply rinse or wipe away. Will not corrode soft metals.
USE CAUTION when you use PBW in closed equipment. When you mix hot water and PBW in an air or water-tight space, it will create pressure.
BLC, also known as Beer Line Cleaner, is a preferred alkaline based draft line cleaner. Used to remove bacteria and loosen mineral deposits from beverage lines, faucets, etc.. Can be used with all type of cleaning systems and al types of draft set ups including long draw commercial systems, homebrew set ups, kegerators, draft box lines, etc.. Can be used with cold or warm water. No hazardous shipping.
Instructions for use:
Add ½ oz BLC for each quart of water.
Drain out beer and run solution into line.
Circulate or let stand in lines for at least 15 minutes
Flush cleaning solution from line and rinse well with clean water.
Homebrewers know that proper sanitation techniques are critical for creating high quality homemade beverages. BTF Iodophor, an iodine based sanitizer, is a powerful, broad spectrum antimicrobial product that kills a wide range of bugs that are waiting to infect your fermentation. Unlike acid based sanitizers, BTF Iodophor reliably kills yeast, mold, fungus, bacteria, viruses and blood borne pathogens.
BTF Iodophor offers a low cost per use, is gentler on your hands than other sanitizers, and is very low foaming. If used in the correct dilution (very important) it is a no-rinse sanitizer. It is safe to use on all your brewing equipment such as buckets, kegs, tanks, fermenters, bottles, etc. Even if you frequently use a sanitizer, it’s a good idea to have multiple sanitizers on hand especially when working with wild yeasts and bacteria or as a “change of pace” sanitizer.
Directions for 12.5 PPM Brewing Sanitizer Solution:
To Make 1.5 Gallons of sanitizer: Mix 1 tsp BTF Iodophor into 1 ½ gallons cool water
To Make 5 Gallons of Sanitizer: Mix ½ oz (1 Tablespoon) BTF Iodophor into 5 gallons cool water
Allow solution to contact surface for 2 minutes, then air dry.
Iodophor Features:
Kills yeast, mold, fungus, gram positive bacteria, gram negative bacteria, spore forming bacteria, viruses and blood borne pathogens
Use at a rate of 1/2 oz of BTF per 5 gallons
Low foaming
No-rinse at 12.5 PPM dilution (see above)
Non-corrosive and gentle on skin and hands
Our favorite brewer gloves are made from a chemical resistant PVC that protects your hands from harsh cleaning chemicals. With a length of 21.5 in, these elbow length gloves allow you to reach into liquids while protecting your hands and forearms. We also like these gloves because they offer more heat resistance than the standard green brewing gloves.
Great for cleaning your brewery and handling brewing equipment in a sanitary way!

This line brush is 1/4” in diameter and 36” long. You can use it to clean any 1/4” ID tubing in your brewery or draft setups. The long handle makes it convenient for long lengths of tubing.
Use it to clean:
Draft lines
Keg dip tubes
Down tube on your Cornelius keg
Racking canes
Any tube or line that is 1/4” in diameter
Quickly clean kegs and fermenters while you tend to other tasks
High flow rate pump provides a powerful blast that coats the inside of the vessel
Use it for cleaning or sanitizing with your favorite solutions
15L bucket provides a much larger reservoir compared to other models
Everything included in the system neatly fits inside the bucket for easy storage
The Bucket Blaster is a convenient and effective system for cleaning and sanitizing kegs, carboys, and other brewing vessels. The beauty of the Bucket Blaster is that you can set it and forget it. Simply set up the keg washer basin with your cleaner or sanitizer, set your vessel over the jet nozzle, power up the pump and let the Bucket Blaster do the work while you tend to other tasks. Perfect for homebrew kegs, carboys, FermZillas, or bucket fermenters.
This unit comes with a 15L (3.9 gal) bucket, which doubles as a storage container when you are not using the system. Other keg washers come with a very small reservoir that make it a pain to move, as liquid spills over the sides easily and generally they just do not work as well. The Bucket Blaster's large 15L reservoir makes it much less likely for you to spill liquid on the floor, and since it can hold more cleaning solution, each cleaning cycle will be that much more effective.
Includes:
Submersible Pump - 2,000 L/hr
15L Bucket
Powerful Jet Nozzle
9.5 mm EVABarrier Tubing
Gray and Black Ball Lock Disconnects

Sodium Percarbonate is currently on backorder for all sizes. There is no estimated availability at this time.
Typically used as a cleaning agent, it is a compound of sodium carbonate and hydrogen peroxide. Sold commercially as "Oxy-Clean" and various other names. For use in cleaning barrels, mix 0.25 to 0.5 ounces per gallon of barrel in cold or warm water, and dissolve completely. Pour into barrel, and top up with water (do not use hot water, it will release the hydrogen peroxide too quickly). Soak for a few minutes, up to a few hours. The longer the soak the more tannins will be extracted from the wood, reducing the life and flavor of the barrel. Drain the barrel, rinse with water, and rinse the inside of the barrel with a citric acid solution (1 tbsp citric acid per 5 gallons water) to neutralize the sodium carbonate. For general cleaning of equipment, use .5 to 1 ounces per gallon of water.
Usage: 0.25 to 1.0 ounces per gallon of water
Chemical name: Sodium percarbonate
Compostion:
Sodium carbonate peroxyhydrate >= 85%
Carbonic acid sodium salt (1:2) <= 13%
Sodium silicate SiO2/Na2O <= 1.5%
A proprietary blend of food-grade phosphate buffers to lock in mash pH levels
Takes the guesswork out of using brewing salts and acids to adjust your pH
Reduces scaling in heat exchangers, fermenters, and kegs
Optimize the enzymatic activity of malt, help clarify wort, and often raises the starting gravity
Never worry about pH again! One tablespoon of 5.2 per 5 gallon batch and your water is instantly adjusted to the perfect pH of 5.2, no matter what your starting pH was. It will not add any flavors to your mash water whatsoever. 5.2 optimizes the enzymatic activity of your malt, helps to clarify the wort, and may even help to raise your starting gravities. Also, using 5.2 in the boil will give you more consistent hop usage, and will also keep hard water salts in solution, which will result in less scaling in your heat exchangers, fermenters, and kegs. If you are doing all-grain you add it to your mash water - 1 tablespoon per 5 gallon batch regardless of mash water volume. You do not need to add any extra to your Hot-Liquor tank or Boil Kettle.
Clean-in-place your BrewZilla by using the built-in low volume pump
Recirculate brewery wash and let the CIP Spray Rotor do the work!
Only requires a 6W pump to spin the rotating head and get full effectiveness
Easily adapted for use to clean fermenters and other vessels
Finally! A CIP spray head designed specifically for use with smaller homebrew pumps. There are a lot of stainless steel CIP Spray Balls readily available for homebrewers but they require a fairly beefy pump to spin the head and make it effective. The new Low Volume CIP Spray Rotor can provide full spray coverage with as little flow rate as 3 gallons per minute. This makes cleaning your BrewZilla an absolute breeze by simply recirculating cleaning chemicals and letting the CIP Rotor spray down the inside of your brewery. Also a great option for brewers using the MKII Magnetic Drive Pump as the spray head can easily be adapted to clean all sorts of fermenters.
What Can it Do?
Clean-in-place your 35L, 65L or 100L BrewZilla. Simply cut your recirculation hosing, or purchase additional silicone hosing to get the right length for your setup. You will be able to find the optimum length required by testing with water first. We found great success using the glass lid to start with to see if it is coating everything that you need it to.
Recommended for low voltage pumps as low as 6W up to 25W (roughly 3–5 GPM). If using a more powerful pump, you may need to throttle back the flow rate so you don't overpower the spray rotor.
Includes:
Custom molded rotating spray head with 1/2" BSP thread
11.8" (300mm) length of silicone tubing suitable for your BrewZilla recirculation arm
Stainless nut and barb
Please note: The rotating spray head can only be used in the downwards position, it cannot be tilted or mounted sideways or upside down.

The two most popular sizes of our two most popular cleaning and sanitizing products. Keeping your equipment cleaned and sanitized is the most important step toward making the best beer possible. Stock up on PBW and Star San at the same time, and save a couple bucks along the way!
PBW
PBW stands for Powder Brewery Wash, which is a non-hazardous buffered alkaline brewery cleaner. PBW is the cleaner of choice for many breweries, where it out performs more hazardous caustic chemicals without removing the flesh off your bones. PBW also will not corrode soft metals. Comes in a jar with screw top lid.
When mixing hot water and PBW in an air or water tight space, it will create pressure. Please use caution when using PBW in enclosed equipment.
Star San
Star San is an acid based sanitizer that is quick, odorless, tasteless and safe for most materials except softer metals. Use of 1 oz of Star San per 5 gallons of water and a contact time of 1 minute makes Star San very economical and convenient.
As a high foamer, Star San's foaming action insures coverage and contact time in larger vessels and better penetration into nooks and crannys. Any foam that is left over in your carboy or keg from the Star San solution will not harm your beer or you, and is perfectly safe and non-toxic, nor will it impart any flavors or odors. If you plan on making some up for spray application it is best to use distilled or RO water to maximize the life of the unused portion (minerals in tap water reduce the shelf life of Star San once in solution).
Kit Includes:
PBW - 1 lb (CL25A)
Star San - 32 oz (CL26A)
