I'm prepping to bottle about 75 bottles of wine and I'm using oxyclean to delabel my bottles. I make a sink full of hot tap water and add in about 1/8 to 1/4 cup of oxyclean and let a dozen bottles soak for 30-60 minutes. Afterwards I drain and delabel them. Then I rinse inside and out with more hot tap water.
Final step I use my bottle sterilizer with a mixture of iodophor and hang the bottles on the bottle tree to dry.
Have not bottled anything with these bottles yet but I'm worried about the amount of oxyclean that might be a residual on the bottles and its effects on the wine if so.
Does anyone else use oxy and a general water rinse in this way? Would be interested in your experience.
