Hi!
I have recently been advised to use a bottling bucket and I have a good bucket that will do the trick, however, it's quite old and it's been cleaned with a coarse dishwashing sponge a few times which resulted in the bucket being slightly scratched. Would a cleaner and a sanitizer rinse be safe enough to use the bucket for bottling or shall I chuck the bucket away and find something else for bottling? How easy is it to contaminate beer that is ready for bottling?
Thank you.
