Five Star PBW – Powdered Brewery Wash

Five Star PBW is the gold standard cleaner for homebrewers and professional breweries alike. This powerful, oxygen-based alkaline cleaner is specifically formulated to remove stubborn organic soils, krausen rings, hop resin, and fermentation residue from your brewing equipment without harsh scrubbing. Trusted by breweries across the country, PBW delivers commercial-grade performance in your home brewery.

Unlike caustic cleaners, PBW is non-corrosive to stainless steel, rubber gaskets, plastics, and soft metals when used as directed. Its buffered alkaline formula penetrates and lifts baked-on soils and protein buildup, making it ideal for fermenters, kegs, carboys, heat exchangers, pumps, tubing, and draft systems. Simply soak, circulate, or CIP and rinse – no aggressive scraping required.

Whether you are deep-cleaning a fermenter after a big dry-hopped IPA or maintaining your draft lines, PBW ensures your equipment is residue-free and ready for your next batch. Clean equipment is the foundation of great beer, and PBW helps you brew with confidence.
