I was wondering what fellow roasters are using to clean their cooling trays. I have used a warm damp cloth a number of times, but want
to give it a deeper cleaning. Could I use white distilled vinegar diluted with water, then rinse with warm watered damp cloth?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

A soft wire brush would be so much easier to use for cleaning the individual holes in the tray than a pointed stick.

Anybody use the "Rollster"? I see the ad in most issues of Roast mag, and am tempted to give it a try. My method is simple green and elbow grease, with a kabob skewer or pipe cleaner to clean each hole individually. Every time, I know there must be a better way.


Amazon has it for $30, and you can get free shipping if you have a $35 order.
Amazon.com: Pallo Rollster: Coffee Roasting Kits: Kitchen & Dining

It looks like a hairbrush, that's on a roller. You know, some of the round styling brushes have bristles that are different lengths. Maybe you could improvise and use one of those.

You may end up inventing something to use, instead of paying $30 for something that may not work.
