Hop spider was getting clogged and I'm sure It wasn't flowing as well as it used too. We always rinse it good after ward but it seemed to be getting worse every time we used it.
I tried star San. It don't really do anything. Brewery wash and finally a good soak in oxyclean. Nothing was really cleaning it like I needed it so in my haste I tried a very unconventional approach to cleaning this thing and the result were nothing short of amazing.

The trick, I discovered was dish soap and a good scrub with a sponge.
For some odd reason I think I was over thinking it and when nothing seemed to work I reached for the thing that cleaned everything off of everything and it worked.
Just thought I would share
