I don't have a dishwasher, so I wash all of my bottles by hand, but once that part is done, the rest is easy. I line all my bottles up in rows of 5 so they form a 5X10 rectangle if you will, then i get a couple tool boxes and set my bottling bucket on top (so it higher than the bottles). once...

yeah, I think I saw a picture of someone doing that here at HBT. I thought that was a pretty clever idea. If I ever do upgrade, I'll probably go ahead and get that peice and just make one big loop of my braid. peace -gw
