The title says it all. I have a 2L borosilicate eflask that I use to spin my starters. I always clean it by first filling half way with hot water and shaking vigorously, then soaking with hot water 24 hours and repeat step 1. Finally I store with a fresh foil cap and starsan in both the flask and the foil. There is a stubborn krausen ring that refuses to yeild to my efforts. I hesitate to use dish liquid or a bottlebrush, because I don't want to contaminate my yeast or scratch the inside of the flask. Any other options? The ring is more cosmetic than functional, but I like things neat and tidy.
