Rating Great stuff
Review by Carre on 30/06/2017I can't complain when it comes to this stuff. It is great value for money with regards to some of the more expensive stuff out there. It does what is says on the tin. I have never tried any of the more expensive brands like star-san, but that is mainly due to the price. Plus I would be rinsing everything regardless of whether it is called for it or not, so I cant justify the price of brands like star-san. Maybe one day, but for now I am more than happy with VWP. Also I only bottle my beer so don't have to worry much about stainless steel. -
Rating Works fine
Review by Russellon 31/05/2017I use plastic beer barrels and fermenting bins. This sterliser works fine for me. -
Rating Caution using this on Cornelius Kegs
Review by Thunderbird7on 08/04/2017I have a brand new AEB Cornelius keg which has developed 2 rusted areas inside after only a few uses.
I have always used VWP to clean it. Being new to home brewing I have been very careful to follow the instructions on dosage and rinsing.
I contacted BrewUk and they tell me that this will have been caused by VWP as it contains chlorine! This isn't evident on the container, which actually suggests use on stainless steel and for cleaning and sanitising for home brewing. AEB also state it is the cleaning chemical that has caused the problem. It seemed to work well but I certainly wont be using it again.

Rating The only one
Review by Richardon 20/03/2017Really good, if you come to use a fermenter after not using it for a while this stuff gets rid of any mustiness in seconds, I also leave some in the kegs between brews. -
Rating Reliable steriliser
Review by Ianon 10/03/2017Always used this to sterilise my equipment with no problems as long as you rinse thoroughly. -
Rating Does the job
Review by Jonathanon 23/02/2017Very reliable product. Rinse well after use. Then get the starsan out to finally kill the bugs. -
Rating Essential, can't brew without it
Review by Russellon 21/11/2016This steriliser is essential for all home brewers, just make sure you thoroughly rinse with cold water after and then sanitise with Star san before you use your equipment. -
Rating Great stuff
Review by Paulon 16/10/2016I use this all the time and never have any problems with it, it's also a really good household cleaner and good for clothes too. -
Rating Great Stuff
Review by leeon 18/09/2016Easy to use, a friend of mine recommended this to me and it does the job great. just remember to rinse everything after use and your golden. -

Rating My go to steriliser
Review by Alexon 08/07/2016This stuff I find is great when cleaning out the FV and it needs a bit of a soak. Cleans up a treat and have never had a problem with infection after using it. Also used on all other equipment when brewing. Just make sure that it is well rinsed after before using. -
Rating Just the job
Review by Michaelon 07/07/2016I know that no-rinse is the fashion, but I trust this product -

Rating Great stuff
Review by Fraseron 12/05/2016This is great stuff and it doesn't sting your eyes.
I use the minimum dosage and it works really well. I never buy any other brand of steriliser -
Rating Steriliser of last resort
Review by Keithon 26/04/2016When nothing else works, VWP does. Vessels need to be well rinsed after using VWP but they certainly are clean & sterile. -
Rating Chemical warfare on bacteria
Review by Gavinon 06/04/2016I use this to sterilise everything I use on brew day. So simple, fill up your fermenting vessel with water, add the vwp dump everything in and leave for duration of mash and boil. Yes, it needs rinsing, but not much and the fermenter is a large easy to rinse vessel. Have also used with bottling, but prefer starsan when sterilising bottles. -
Rating Great product
Review by Clubroot on 14/03/2016I always have some handy for cleaning and sterilising plastic fermentation bins and kegs. I economise use by mixing a teaspoon in a few pints of warm water in the fermentation bin, snap on the lid and turn it upside down. Leave to soak for around 20 mins to shift that stubborn tide mark left after primary fermentation. -
Rating good cleaner
Review by Johnon 27/02/2016I've use this for years. It does more than sterilise brewing gear. Manky thermos = no problems. -
Rating Good reliable steriliser
Review by Paulon 24/01/2016Use this regularly and it is a good reliable product. Also useful around the house for other jobs too so a good all rounder. -
Rating Great cleaner
Review by Timon 10/01/2016Always have this in. Together with StarSan we can (fingers crossed) keep the bugs at bay -
Rating VWP Cleanser 400grm
Review by Daveon 09/12/2015I have used this product for years. It is easy to use and very efficient. You need a big tub as you will go through a lot of it if you brew regularly especially if you are bottling. Does the job, I recommend it. -
Rating Great product
Review by Adamon 11/11/2015Been using this for years. Great product. Have used others but always prefer this one and will continue to use for many years to come. -
Rating Superb cleaner
Review by Paulon 18/08/2015First cleanser I used when started brewing and never changed as cleans brilliantly. I top up my used fermentor with a solution of level teaspoon to 5l warm water and leave it overnight to soak. In the morning, empty and rinse. All hard encrusted parts are removed and ready for next brew. Found BrewUK to also be the best price found for this 400gm pack. -
Rating Fabulous cleaning
Review by Elaineon 23/06/2015A must have for home brew but also useful throughout the home. -
Rating The best steriliser/cleaner
Review by ALASDAIRon 22/12/2014VWP has to be the best cleaner/steriliser. I use this for all my home brewing. My only issue is it is not available in a bigger container from BrewUK.
Response from Brewuk - They are now available in 4kg too. -
Excellent Product
Review by ALASDAIRon 13/06/2014This is superb stuff. Just have to make sure that it is rinsed well. I Would love to see this come, be available in a bigger tub than 400grm. -

Rating Good Stuff
Review by Travipooon 15/05/2014So good, I used it to clean my bathroom and dishwasher. Works really well. -
Rating Wouldn't brew without it
Review by Oliveron 20/11/2013This is the best cleaner sanitiser I know of! VWP is a standard for all my brewing, cleaning fermentors and barrels as well as getting them sanitised ready for the next brew!
As others have said, rinse well or you'll get a chlorine taste left over in your beer and no one want's that! -
Rating Brilliant!
Review by Anthonyon 19/11/2013I love this stuff... just use warm water - rinse, rinse, rinse well! Multi purpose great on discoloured cutlerly and mugs too! -
Rating Go to sanitiser
Review by Robinon 01/10/2012Great for cleaning and sanitising all your equipment. I have used other barrel cleaners that are no where near as effective and using this never had a problem with infection. Definitely need to rinse thoroughly though!
Also great is any of your plastic equipment becomes stained, just leave it soaking overnight and itll be good as new in the morning! -
Rating Cleans a treat
Review by Markon 17/06/2012Used this for all my brewing equipment and to spray on worktops, computer keyboards and dishcloths etc. Works a treat on most things that needs cleaning or sanitising. Just needs a good wash with water.

Rating Good value steriliser
Review by Markon 22/04/2012Works well and rinse well. Ok to use on pressure valves for barrels as does not contain sodium metabisulphite. Must rinse well, ie 3-4 times to remove all traces of product before using any brewing vessel. -
Rating Excellent sanitiser, but rinse well
Review by Alexon 18/04/2012This is chlorine based, so rinse it properly to avoid any off-tastes.
