Why so many twist offs....

I rinse my bottles after drinking from them and then store them in plastic milk crates which hold about 24 bottles perfectly. I also put labels on my bottles so when I'm ready to bottle I soak them in a bucket of hot water for about an hour and then peel the labels off. My dishwasher has a sanitize cycle on it so after the labels are peeled, I put the bottles in the dishwasher to sanitize. Then I just place my bottling bucket on the counter above my dishwasher and bottle straight from the dishwasher. The door for the dishwasher then catches any drippings from my bottling wand...

People have told me that the bottles you buy are super brittle anyway. I mean come on, you're paying almost as much as if they were filled with beer, too! Plus, it's fun to try to guess which brand your bottle originally was.

This is the exact same process I've used since my very first brew. Works like a charm...once the bottles are cleaned! I am always amazed at the "science projects" I find growing in the bottom of beer bottles people give me. If the gunk in there is really fierce...that bottle goes into the recycling bin!

If I trusted that just rinsing them got them clean it'd be a different story.
