I was just given some Grolsch/Swing-Top Bottles. They range in age from a few weeks old to several years old. My questions are about how to clean them and use them:
Anything else I should know about using this style of bottle?
Thanks!
- Remove the gaskets to clean the lids and gaskets separately, or leave them together when cleaning?
- Replace the gaskets every time or "as-needed"?
- If "as-needed," how do I tell if they need it?
- Soak/warm water/boil the gaskets, then install them onto the lids when bottling, or just leave them on the lids at room temperature when bottling?
Anything else I should know about using this style of bottle?
Thanks!
