FWIW, I recommend keeping bleach well away from all wine equipment that
can't be *thoroughly* rinsed. IOW, glass and metal are OK for bleach
treatment. Plastics (at least the ones that tend to trap odors) and wood
are not OK for bleaching.
As a rule of thumb, anything porous or permeable should never see bleach
before use in winemaking.
