What is the best way to clean the inside of a flask?
If you don’t have a bottle brush, the best way to clean the inside of a flask is by creating friction by using rice, salt or bicarbonate of soda. As we shared in this article, you can pour rice into the flask and fill half of it with cold water. Close the flask then shake it for a few minutes. You can use the same process with salt and bicarbonate of soda.

Or
Bottle brush or a cleaning cloth with hot water

Or a round-bottom flask brush

Question

In the attached picture... After distilling safrole from sassafras oil, the RXN glassware appears really dirty (burnt organics?)

How would swim go about cleaning the glassware clean so swim could use the same glassware again next time ???

H2SO4 c + K2Cr2O7 mixture or KMnO4 + org acid will clean it up
