Product Description
PBW - Powdered Brewery Wash in a 50 lb bulk size is the trusted choice for breweries, wineries, cider houses, and serious homebrewers who need powerful cleaning performance on a larger scale. Originally developed for Coors, this patented alkaline cleaner is now the industry standard across North America.
Whether you're cleaning fermenters, kegs, tanks, or brewhouse gear, PBW delivers unmatched cleaning power. It's safe for stainless steel, soft metals, plastic, rubber, tubing, and even your skin. No scrubbing required—just soak and rinse.
Recommended Usage:
- 1–2 oz per gallon for kettles, tanks, and heavily soiled items
- ¾ oz per gallon for fermenters, carboys, and general cleaning
- Soak overnight for best results; rinse thoroughly the next day
PBW is biodegradable and septic-safe. It lifts caked-on krausen, hop residue, and fermentation gunk from hard-to-reach areas that a sponge or brush can’t touch.
Bulk PBW Use Cases:
- Commercial cleaning in breweries and taprooms
- Keg, carboy, and bottle prep before sanitizing
- Recirculating systems and pump lines
- General household cleaning with brewery-grade results
Rinses clean, leaving equipment ready for sanitizing with Star San or your sanitizer of choice.
