So I live out in the country and I’ve noticed a nasty smell in my garage over the last week or two. The good news is found it today the bad news is it was coming from my 5 gal igloo mashtun.
The mashtun is was in good shape until this. Big question is will it be safe to use if I throughly clean and disinfect it or is there too much risk of the plastics retaining a chemical memory of what decomposed fluids may have been at the bottom?
fwiw aside from the odor it doesn’t appear to be stained or anything it looks like the false bottom tubing kept said rodent from completely resting on the bottom.
save or toss?
