The guy at the LHBS said it can lose its potency, but should be fine. I used a little bit more than I would have (not much) if it was fresh, and everything seemed normal. Has anybody here had to store StarSan for a long period of time (2-5 years)? And if so, how did it work out?

Re: Does PBW or StarSan thats never been used expire? snowcapt wrote: I know that you can mix up a batch of starsan and keep it covered and keep usin it. the cloudier it is, the less effective it is, to my understandin. No. Starsan will remain effective as long as the pH is below 3.

0 Comments. Star San sanitizing solution can be stored for up to 1 year when stored in a tightly sealed container and at temperatures below 85F. It is important to store Star San away from direct sunlight and any other light sources that may compromise its effectiveness. After the 1 year mark, it is recommended to check Star San's.
So with StarSan, I know I shouldn’t fear the foam, but does that mean I
StarSan is good as long as the PH is 3 or lower. I believe it's generally advertised as mixed batch being good for 3-4 weeks, but people have reported having the PH stay below 3 for several months. To help it stay good longer, keep it in a sealed container, and use distilled water. Buy some PH test strips to be able to test if your starsan is.

According to its Safety Data Sheet Starsan appears to be made of an aqueous solution of two chemicals, phosphoric acid and dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (!). Phos acid is stable and I can only guess that it's the phos acid that is the active sanitising agent by creating an acidic environment that kills bugs, so even after a long time in store that part should be OK.

Nov 24, 2011. #6. No. Star San is stable if mixed according to directions in water that doesn't raise the ph >3. Testing the pH is the only test for Star San approved by the manufacturer. Cloudy doesn't do it, any more than bubbles are a measure of æration as opposed to using a hydrometer to get some actual numbers.

Try the recommended concentration in a gallon or so, check the pH (should be < 2.99). Then give it a taste if it smells okay (you'd be consuming it in your beer otherwise). Fresh starsan has a kind of lemon-sour candy flavor. It's quite pleasant. 2.

Star San is a reusable sanitizer. Undiluted Star San has a shelf life of 1-2 years as long as the PH level is below 3. Diluted Star San stored in an open container should be used within an hour or so. When stored in a sealed container it should last you 3-4 weeks with a PH level of less than 3. As with many consumer goods, it is often much.

88. Reaction score. 29. Feb 11, 2023. #2. It's a common belief among home brewers that Starsan working solutions remain sufficiently active for months. It's claimed as long as the pH remains at about 2, it's good to use. Unfortunately, it's not just about pH. The detergent/surfactant in Starsan makes cell membranes more permeable thus allowing.

Charlie Talley said that the solution is only good for a few hours after it turns cloudy. Yeast (including wild yeast) and LAB are resistant to acid. That is why they can survive in beer and can survive acid washing at 2.5 pH. So pH , 3.0 alone matters little to many spoilage microbes.

I have a qt. bottle of star san that I opened in sept. of 2008 and I used a very small amount of it that year. Then in the spring of 2009 was when I went through my lung cancer surgery then chemo and I quit brewing for a long time.

I have, more or less, simply assumed it wouldn't go bad over time because it is acid-based, and I wouldn't assume the acid to degrade over time, but I am not chemist. Either way, it still behaves exactly the same. Mixes out the sames, the diluted star-san looks and smells similar and foams in the same manner and magnitude.

Because of the 1 or 2 year freshness recommendation via Five Star, my recommendation to most homebrewers is to purchase the smaller 8 oz bottle of Star San. If you're using the spray bottle method [See: Star San Tips, Tricks and Guidelines] 8 ounces of Star San should last many homebrewers for at least a year.
