Looks good Mummsy

If ya really want to get it going just add some coke to the brew, but beware it will eat metal like it's going out of style Cheesy

Got that right SJ
I did a clean on an old Taiwanese job last year.
Left it in just a litte too long.
The lid didn't fit very well after the clean up.
Kept wanting to fall into the base.

I usually check them every day once they look close to done.
If your short of time to scrub them just take them out of the mix. Squirt them with the hose ( get the really lose stuff off) and then put them in a container of fresh clean water. The idea is to keep the oxygen away from them so that new rust doesnt start. You can leave them in clean fresh water until your ready to scrub(days if need be). without any problem.

Dont really know about that Sue...it could be a bit alcoholic after fermenting the way it does.....does the dog look happy???? Undecided

.......maybe someone else might know more.
