"Is it necessary to clean a new PSII the same way one would clean a copper still? On a copper still, I would clean with soap and water, then run a vinegar water salt mix through it, then run a wash through it and discard the output. Since the PSII is stainless, what is the proper cleaning procedure? Thank you for any information you can provide. PS - It sure hurt to throw out the first batch, but it had to be done.  "

It is not necessary to run a batch through the PSII for cleaning purposes, as everything is TIG welded so no flux is used.

Great! Thanks. I'll do a general soap and water cleaning and go from there.

Pretty much what I did... Then, I ran about 3 gals of distilled water thru at speed to giv'er a good flush and test for leaks to make sure I'd configured things right. . Then I did my Wine sac run, cleaned agin, and was good to go.. |
