I'm a poor college student wanting to start brewing and looking for any kind of way to work around a budget, finding cheaper ways to brew something great while keeping it safe and clean! Any advice will help but for now these are the main questions I have.
Can you use rubbing alcohol when sanitizing equipment for brewing? If you can what are the ratios of rubbing alcohol to water? Along with the soak times.
Along with that what are your thoughts on bleach for sanitizing (as it is really cheap) and what are the ratios and soak times? I've read many different variations, 1 Tbs per gal to 1/4 Tbs per gal and just wondering if someone with more experience has anything to say on it?
