Thought I would share some photos of my newest project. Just finished building a bottle washer and keg cleaner.
Bottle washer uses a submersible 1/3 hp pump from amazon that sits in plastic bin. connected with short hose to bottle washer assembly in an upper bin. Made from 1/2" pvc. The vertical stems is flexible PEX tubing. Used JB Weld Water Weld putty to adhere stems to the PVC. The metal rack is a wire drawer for a closet organizer, used to help hold the bottles. Holes are drilled in upper tub, that allows cleaning solution/water/starsan to return to bottom tub in order to recirculate solution. Bottle washer also includes a connection on its own valve for cleaning hoses. Had trouble getting enough pressure out of stems at first but found some little vinyl caps online that I poked holes in and glued to top of stems with all purpose epoxy. Works great now.
Keg washer attaches to the same pump as bottle washer. Sits in a 5 gal bucket from home depot. Cut holes in top for the solution to recirculate. Includes a hose connector to clean posts as well.
