First time bottler here. I've been reading through back threads, and just wanted to run my plan by you guys before I ruin a whole batch of beer.
I've been saving bottles and will be buying more to make up enough for the whole batch. After emptying a bottle I rinse it well and put it off to the side. Now that I've got a bunch I'm soaking them in water with a little bleach in it. I'll remove the labels and set them aside until bottling time.
I plan to run them through my dishwasher's Sani-Rinse cycle just before bottling.
Should I run them through a regular wash cycle too? It's also got a Hi-Temp Wash mode. Should I bother? Without detergent, I assume. Should I put a little sanitizer in the soap dispenser?
Thanks a bunch,
