Nice info but I think I’ll stick to vinegar which you can put in water to kill germs, rinse your hands in it to kill bacteria, edible - non toxic - multiple uses and cheaper than bleach.

Not to mention being easier to brew at home, given that it's basically spoiled wine ;)

Vinegar is an acid with a low ph. So many germs and virus are killed with it.

Michael Mullen a spokesperson for he Heinz corporation says that straight 5% vinegar will kill 80% of the germs and virus. Heinz says they can’t make the claim on the bottle that it kills bacteria because of the EPA laws. If you do the research though you will find that the claims are sound.

Only 80%? That doesn't sound all that good to me, but that's just me.

Where does one get, “spoiled wine”?
