So I"m trying to figure out what the best way to clean 2 cases of bottles is.
Once I get the bottles *clean*, I'm good to go, but cleaning seems to really bring me down on bottling day. The sanitize and fill aspects seem to go quick enough.
Yesterday, I used the bottle brush on 50 some bottles. Hot soapy water, and a couple of rinses, and I'll be good to bottle this weekend. But what a PIA
Using the bottle brush takes a long time. But I've had cases where I swish around some sanitizer, and brown sediment drops out of the bottle I was going to use. Yuk. Normally, I rinse out my HB bottles the night I drink them, but I certainly don't brush them out at the time.
What's the best, if any, alternative to using a bottle brush on every bottle? Is the jet washer good enough?
