Sorry for ANOTHER bottling question, I'm just super paranoid about this sanitation stuff so I want to make sure my process is sound...
1.) Soak bottles in bleach water to sanatize. Should I rinse these or just air dry?
2.) Run the dishwasher EMPTY with a bleach solution.
-- If I should rinse the bottles, I was planning on a run through the sanitized dishwasher.
-- otherwise I will put them on the racks of the dishwasher to airdry upside down.
3.) bottle from the dishwasher to the case
What about the caps? Should they be rinsed after sanitizing, or go straight to the bottles?
Should they be allowed to dry?
When bottling, should I put my fementer lid on the bottling bucket or leave it uncovered? I'm worried about how long it's going to be uncovered...
I'm probably just getting over crazy about this, but just want to make sure i'm not doing anything totally screwed up.
Thanks!
