Harris SureSan - 250g - No Rinse Sanitiser
Sodium Percarbonate - Non-Rinse Sanitiser (250g)
Harris SureSan 250g is classed as a no-rinse sanitiser since it is non-toxic and will not add any flavours.
It is made from Sodium Percarbonate which breaks down into Hydrogen Peroxide and Sodium Carbonate when dissolved in water.
The peroxide acts as a non-chlorine bleaching agent, which is highly effective for contact sanitizing surfaces and equipment.
It breaks down after 1 hour to the harmless residual products of oxygen and water - hence no additional rinsing is required.
There will be a residual element of Sodium Carbonate that remains.
Many users still prefer to give the equipment a quick rinse with cold water to remove this, even though it is harmless.
Instructions
- Simply mix 1 tablespoon of Suresan with 1-2 liters of warm water.
- Ensure the solution is in contact with all parts or areas to be sanitized.
- Use within 1 hour of preparation.
We have used this product ourselves extensively and find it most useful when sterilizing our beer bottles.
Cleaning and sanitizing all your homebrew equipment is a major factor to ensure you make a successful brew.
After we have used any brewing equipment, we will use a "heavy-duty" cleaner - there are many to pick from.
Before we use the equipment again, we will then use a no-rinse sanitiser - SureSan & Chemipro are great examples.
We find this practice works for us, and it is a good habit to ensure everything is in tip-top condition.
