I have a white food safe 5gal bucket that I mix about gallon or two of Star San and hot water in. I put all my utensils in it before and during my make (after a quick rinse first). I dip everything in it including my hands. Very convenient. Make sure the surfaces you want sanitized have been covered in it for at least a minute or more.
I also have a spray bottle with the mix in it too for spraying stuff too big for the bucket (1/4 tea per bottle). Everything gets soaked, sprayed or wiped including my hands. If you prefer, you can let your equipment drip dry, shake it a bit or wipe it with a clean paper towel before using it but if you rinse with tap water, you can potentially re-infect what you just cleaned because tap or especially well water can still carry nasties. The acids in Star San are food safe in the diluted strengths. In fact, if you are a pop drinker you might have just had some in one of your beverages.
I also use it for my hard cider makes - great stuff indeed.
