i like it. one more question please. what is the best way to sanitize 54 bottles after the labels are gone?

about to bottle in a couple of days and looking for the best way to get these old labels off of my reused bottles. im sure there is info somewhere so if someone could link me to the thread or offer suggestion much appreciated
