So far, I've cycled 10% vinegar with water for two days in a row through the chiller with a pump, and that took out a lot of grime, but not all of it (you can still see some sticking to the inside of the ports of the chiller).
I'm now running a mixture of dish detergent and hand soap mixed with water through the chiller, in reverse direction, which is pulling out even more grime from what I can tell.
After that's done for another two days, I'm going to run the vinegar and water mix for yet another two, and then run a baking soda with water mix for another two again.
What are some other mixtures I should try to vary things up and try to get rid of everything? Take note that I don't really have any sort of brush I can use. Or at least, I can't think of any method to scrub the inside of the exchanger.
I've considered bleach, but everywhere on the Internet says to avoid it at all costs. I will be rinsing with pure distilled as well, but I'd like to leave that for the very end.
