G'day,
I've just bought a floor corker, ready to cork some melomel and mead this weekend, and it occurs to me that I should know how to clean and sanitise it first ![]() I've googled a bit and here is the process I've come up with: * wipe the compressive jaws with a damp rag to remove surface gunk * roll up some kitchen paper towel to simulate a cork, press it through * wipe the compressive jaws again with alcohol to sanitise Does this sound OK? I'm using some Eno polyethylene synthetic corks, and practice runs with bottled water were really easy so I don't see any need for lubricant. cheers, Ross. -- Ross McKay, WebAware Pty Ltd "The lawn could stand another mowing; funny, I don't even care" - Elvis Costello |
