Actually, John, Martinge and JB usually prefer bitter or strong ale
for that sort of job. IPA (India Pale Ale for non-British beer fans)
might do in a pinch, though. One word of caution to all you
owners reading this: the Streetlys generally DRINK the ale while
they're cleaning the machine, although, one can't be certain what
might happen when they imbibe too much of the stuff...
Cheers! (hic!)
Rick, FX10030 (in Montreal to do a TV show -- and tonight I get
to see Pierre Veilleux's mellotrons, including his MkII which I
haven't seen in person since Peter Csanky refused to sell it to me
in 1973. I did talk him out of 10030, though. Still, I've always
lusted after the MkII. At least it found a good home!)
