Awesome - Thanks for the update. Also - I think in your pic's you have some steel pipe or something that raises the ice-bottles up. I was thinking some 1/2 inch pvc and a X adapter, stick 4 pieces of the PVC and you got a nice plastic (non rusting :) ) stand for the ice bottles. Kilroy

That is indeed some good news :) Now a question on a similar line perhaps. I would like to ship some of my Homebrew wine to South Africa and the UK, from the US. Do you know of any restrictions etc, that I might have to deal with? Thanks Andrew

I have had pretty good Success using Arm & Hammer Washing Soda. NOTE: Washing Soda, NOT Detergent, or baking soda. Put a fair to good amount in the bathtub, and fill it up with hot water, soak your bottles there 4 hours or so, and the labels for the most part just fall off. Kilroy
