2 ) 1 -Equipment Sanitizer
The first is a good sanitizer , everything that comes in contact with your mead needs to be clean and sanitized. I use STAR SAN. It’s a great acid sanitizer. One ounce of STAR SAN makes five (5) gallons of sanitizer. Don’t need five gallons then a quarter ounce makes 1.25 gallons of sanitizer.
Soak , spray or mop on with a rag . STAR SAN needs one (1) minute of contact time to sanitize with no rinsing
Don’t use bleach as a sanitizer. You ever clean with bleach and after rinsing can still smell it .thats all it takes to ruin your mead . Plus it not good for stainless Steel.
