I can't figure out why I have never in 3 years had a problem with a batch. I have made it from the max range of the SG6, about 20 PPM down to 5 PPM. I was told the first thing I needed was a bottle brush. I never got one. Instead I got a case of new mason jars. All I have ever done was rinse them well with DW. The jar I use for brewing has a dark yellow collor, but when I decant the EIS it is always clear. I am sure the Silver Puppy will do the same.
