Excellent Product Review by Dustin

I originally got this stuff as part of a beginner's cleaning and sanitizing kit. After using it several times I am completely sold. It really shines when cleaning my 6.5 gallon carboy primary. Just fill it up with the appropriate amount of cleaner and let it soak for 30 min. No scrubbing required. This stuff has rendered my carboy brush useless!

I've used this for some time and gotten spoiled. It easily removes everything in a reasonable time soak without much, if any, scrubbing. Great for all equipment and retrieved win bottles too!

Works Great for cleaning brewing equipment. Also Great for cleaning Coffee makers, carafes, and thermoses. Removed years of coffee varnish from an old carafe at the office and made it sparkle like it was brand new.

I've yet to find something PBW won't clean! It soaks the mold out of glass bottles in a couple minutes. Soaks labels off in 12 minutes to a couple hours. It even softens the label glue to mush! And here's an unusual one...It bleaches muslin hop socks & grain bags clean as new overnight! It's even good at cleaning jewelry! Gold,diamonds,rubies,sapphires,etc. They all soak clean as new in no time! Is there anything this stuff Can't clean?? I seriously doubt it...

No longer do you have to scrub your carboys after nasty fermentations! Just soak over night with the pbw and everything just washes off like magic! I cant believe I was scrubbing so hard all the time when this magical cleaner can do it all for you!

I was pretty sceptical, but was desperate to get some grease off of a kettle, after soaking it in this stuff, it came off like it was nothing. I had tried everything else to no avail. It's pretty incredible.
