how do you sanitise your rig?

Hi all (experienced and novice) (x)cr divers,
I didn't know if to post this here or under dive medicine.

Anyhow, I noticed that there seem to be different protocolls for loop sanitisation - starting from almost ignoring it ("it's not a problem...") to meticulous cleaning of every piece.

What method do you use - rinsing (before, after), what cleaner or detergent, hot air, ambient air, cleaning all or just hoses or/and counterlungs, or just the mouthpiece?

What is your experience - ever had problems with getting a sour throat after diving your buddy's rigg?

What did your instructor teach you?

Any other thoughts on this subject?

Looking forward to a wide field of answers.
