So long as the vessels are clean anyway (i.e. scrub them first and don't leave lumps in) it's only really bumping off any wild yeasts, bacteria, etc that may have got in. Be careful though because posh bleach can be quite thick and stick to the sides so use the cheap stuff! :)


Good shout on that Jimmy - after 9-10 months of good dunder something went wrong with the dunder pit shortly after topping up with some fresh dunder - got a powdery foosty smelling mold on top of the good mold - not nice. I got a 2l bottle of thin value bleach from Tesco for 29p to nuke the container and I'm starting again.
