Wow! Didn't think I would get such a heated debate over this. I work in the food industry, and have looked at the msds sheets for oxyclean. It is safe. I was just looking for opinions on effectiveness, which it seems to me that it is. Thanks all!

I have seen several posts about oxyclean working just as well as PBW for removing labels. What about cleaning? I bought a bunch of used equipment today that I want to thoroughly clean, but couldn't make it to my lhbs to get more PBW, and I would like to use this equipment for a few batches...
I am doing a peach cobbler cream ale currently. I used frozen peaches. I added them at the height of fermentation on day 4. They have been sitting like that for a week. Any suggestions on how much longer to leave them before moving to secondary?

I live in colorado, and my temperatures are getting to be perfect for cold crashing on my back porch. How long does it need to cold crash? I have a short window leading up to when I want to bottle and I want to make sure I leave it cold for the right amount of time.

I am taking an American wheat and adding frozen fruit. I have 5 gallons fermenting that I am dividing into one gallon batches with fruit. I know all of the particulars for using the fruit, but what I am unsure of is how much to use per gallon. Any thoughts?
