A while back I noticed a yellow tint in my water in my BK while warming it up before brew day. Turns out it was left over residue from PBW cleaning several weeks earlier from my last brew. Since then I always rinse twice whenever I use PBW, and I will get that yellow-ish water even in my second rinse. That second rinsing usually gets rid of the PBW residue, but I'm wondering what you do in your rising.
So this works for me, and I am going to keep doing this. Just wondering if you have noticed the yellow tinted water after rinsing, if you care, and what your rinse process is?
My process is as follows
