1. Fermentation Tanks:

Empty the tank of any remaining beer or yeast slurry.
Rinse the tank with hot water to remove loose debris.
Prepare a cleaning solution using a brewery-specific cleaner or detergent. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for mixing the solution.
Use a high-pressure hose or scrubbers to clean the interior of the tank thoroughly, paying attention to any residues or build-up.
Rinse the tank thoroughly with hot water to remove all cleaning chemicals.
Sanitize the tank using a brewery-grade sanitizing solution, ensuring all surfaces are covered.
Rinse again with hot water to remove any sanitizer residues.
Allow the tank to air dry before reusing.
2. Brew Kettles:

Empty any remaining wort or trub from the kettle.
Rinse the kettle with hot water to remove debris.
Prepare a cleaning solution using a brewery-specific cleaner or detergent, following the manufacturer's instructions.
Boil the cleaning solution in the kettle for a short period to help remove stubborn deposits.
Scrub the interior of the kettle using brushes or scrubbers, paying attention to any build-up.
Rinse the kettle thoroughly with hot water to remove cleaning chemicals.
Sanitize the kettle with a brewery-grade sanitizing solution, ensuring all surfaces are covered.
Rinse again with hot water to remove any sanitizer residues.
Allow the kettle to air dry before the next use.
3. Hoses and Tubing:

Disconnect hoses and tubing from your brewery equipment.
Rinse them with hot water to remove any liquid or residue.
Soak the hoses and tubing in a cleaning solution for a specified time (per manufacturer's instructions).
Use a brush or pipe cleaner to scrub the interior of the hoses and tubing.
Rinse thoroughly with hot water to remove cleaning chemicals.
Sanitize hoses and tubing with a brewery-grade sanitizing solution.
Rinse again with hot water to remove any sanitizer residues.
Allow hoses and tubing to air dry before reattaching them to equipment.
4. Heat Exchangers:

Disassemble the heat exchanger if possible.
Soak the heat exchanger components in a cleaning solution for a specified time (per manufacturer's instructions).
Use brushes or pipe cleaners to clean the interior surfaces.
Rinse thoroughly with hot water to remove cleaning chemicals.
Reassemble the heat exchanger.
Sanitize the heat exchanger with a brewery-grade sanitizing solution.
Rinse again with hot water to remove any sanitizer residues.
5. Brewing Vessels (Mash Tuns, Lauter Tuns, etc.):

Follow similar steps as for kettles or tanks, depending on the vessel's function.
Pay attention to any false bottoms, screens, or other components that may require separate cleaning and sanitization.
Remember to maintain detailed records of your cleaning and sanitation procedures for each piece of equipment, and follow a regular cleaning schedule to ensure consistency and prevent contamination in your brewery. Always use cleaning and sanitizing products designed for brewery use and follow the manufacturer's recommendations for their use.
