Usage: 4g/litre for warm water
It dissolves well in water, but the hotter the water the faster the reaction and the more effective the cleaning. Therefore, if possible, use water at least 40-50°C when cleaning with OXI. The reaction of sodium percarbonate and water releases a significant amount of oxygen, which simply lifts the dirt from the surface. It also destroys living cells, effectively killing bacteria and fungi.
A significant amount of heat is also released during the process, making the reaction even more violent.
The reaction takes about 30 minutes and the liquid will be actively bubbling. If the effervescence stops, the agent is no longer actively cleaning, so it is basically a simple soaking in water.
I would like to point out here that the common misconception that OXI does not need to be rinsed is completely untrue. The oxygen released during the reaction of OXI and water will obviously escape into the atmosphere, but the other component, the washing soda, will not escape from the suspension. Instead, it will form a fine-grained, white, powdery carbonate layer on our brewing equipment once it has dried. This in itself will not necessarily lead to off-flavours or other problems, but it is not aesthetically pleasing at all. In addition, the carbonate layer and the layer behind it can harbour bacteria from disinfectants, reducing the effectiveness of the disinfectants.
