I attended this years Winemakers Conference in Portland Oregon. Never been to that part of the country and found the area to be beautiful. Unfortunately no matter how much Pinot Noir I drink or make it is still not ever making my favorite list. Especially being a big Cab drinker.... As always the conference was very good and always room to keep learning! At one of the sessions the chemist talked about sanitation. I did not know that kmeta was not a sanitizer! Everything I read always told me it was..... We were told that it only "seals" the area but does not "sanitize" it. Unlike a true sanitizer of the Starsan type or iodine that actually "sanitizes" the areas it comes in contact with! So, I ask him... What should I put in my spray bottle to spray things with that I now am using kmeta? He instructed that if starsan is too foamy for me then the best thing to use is Everclear. So I guess now I will be filling my spray bottles up with Everclear.....
