Five Star - 6022b_ - Star San - 32 Ounce - High Foaming Sanitizer

Easy to use, great value for money, great product to clean my wine slushie machine .

High Efficiency Sanitization for Fermentation Equipment I use Five Star Star San to sterilize flip top glass bottles for my home made sodas and ginger bug. It is a high leverage, acid based sanitizer that is an industry standard for home brewing and fermentation due to its no rinse formulation and rapid contact time. Technical Performance Analysis Self-Foaming Action: The high foaming characteristic is a deliberate technical feature. The foam penetrates deep into the neck and seals of flip top bottles, ensuring that every internal surface area is contacted by the sanitizer, even in hard to reach crevices. No-Rinse Efficiency: This is a phosphoric acid based sanitizer that does not require rinsing when diluted correctly. This prevents re contamination from tap water and streamlines the bottling workflow by allowing you to fill bottles while they are still wet with foam. Rapid Contact Time: It is effective with only 60 seconds of contact time. This significantly reduces the time required for batch processing compared to traditional bleach based or oxygen based cleaners that require long soak times. Solution Stability: When mixed with distilled or RO water, the diluted solution can remain effective for several weeks in a sealed container. You can verify the potency using a pH meter; it remains effective as long as the pH stays below 3.0. Ease of Use and Value for Money Efficiency: The integrated measuring cup on the 32 ounce bottle allows for precise dosing (1 ounce per 5 gallons of water). This prevents waste and ensures you are always using the correct concentration for maximum microbial kill. Value: Because the dilution ratio is so high, a single 32 ounce bottle can produce up to 160 gallons of sanitizer. This results in an incredibly low cost per batch, making it a logical long term investment for regular fermenters. User Experience: It is odorless and tasteless when diluted, meaning it will not interfere with the delicate flavor profiles of your fermented sodas or ginger bug. It is also non-staining and safe for use on stainless steel and glass. Pros No-rinse formula prevents re-contamination and saves time High foam ensures total coverage in narrow neck bottles Extremely concentrated for high long term value Cons High acidity means it should not be used on soft metals like aluminum or galvanized steel

Holy wow!! First off, this is an AMAZING product. If you are looking around for sanitizers, this is the one to get. In particular I was looking for a sanitizer for my ice machine. Sanitizing is the second step you should never forget with cleaning. If you own an ice machine, this is great stuff and it will protect you until the next cleaning cycle. Don’t let the size of the bottle itself fool you. This is crazy concentrated stuff. You MUST dilute it, that’s what the other cap on the other side is for. My ice machine makes 100lb per day of ice and it only required 1 teaspoon (yes!) of this stuff added to the water reservoir. You have to add it when water is already in there and the machine is off, only then do you start the cleaning cycle. I love how this cleaner isn’t so cost prohibitive. It foams like crazy and the sanitizer performs very well. If you own an ice machine you will need to run the cleaning cycle at least 3 times. At least I did in order to get the foam down and it’s pristine now. Throw out the first 2 batches of ice when it’s done. I hope this helps someone. Don’t forget, it’s a great product, foams a LOT and make sure you sure you use the right amount of solution. You’ve got a customer for life now.

Use exclusively for home brewing wine and mead. There isn't any better alternative to how easy and effective Star San is for sanitizing my equipment. Since I've been using it I have never had any issues with bacteria or contamination.

Great for sanitizing, homebrewing, equipment and bottles.

Excelente producto para sanitizar tu equipo

It's Star San, you can't go wrong with this! I wish the product arrived sooner, hence the 4 stars..

デカい容器で漬け物をすることが多いのですが、殺菌作業がネックでした。 でもこれを使えばそんな手間なく仕込み器具類含め殺菌できます。 ちょっと濃いですが、浄水1Lにこれを2mlを良く溶かして噴霧器などに入れて使ってます。シュッシュして1分ほど置くだけ。水で流す必要無し(むしろ流してはダメ)。もちろん味や体に影響はありません。 生きてるうちに使い切れるかな...

Para desinfectar botellas de cristal es muy bueno

A bit pricy, but lasts a long time.
