I have a jockey box with a 2 outlet cold plate that needs a quick clean before the next party. Shortly after each use I take a keg filled with Star San solution and run the lines for a while. Then I close the tap and let it be until the next use. I haven't used the box for about 3 months and the lines looked like they had a little white/mucousy appearance inside the lines. I took all the lines apart and soaked them in iodophor (BTF) and seem to be fine now. However, since I am dispensing for people other than me, I would like to make sure that I am not going to have party guests with intestinal distress or have any residues affecting the taste of the beer.
I will probably not risk it and just replace the lines, but the cold plate was also packed with the solution. I would think that since it is no-rinse Star San that it should be OK, but if it is not OK to store Star Stan for longer periods, any recommendations on cleaning it? I have BTF, Star San and PBW.
Any thoughts on what "normal" jockey box maintenance should be.
Thanks
Ben
