I am trying to experiment with different techniques to speed up bottling day. I'm thinking about sterilizing bottles beforehand, and storing them, thus cutting bottling day in half.
Basically I would clean them, soak with star san, empty, drip most of the star san out, foil the top of the bottle tight, and store in crates.
My question is: will the bottles keep sterilized over time if they still are wet with star san inside after I foil them?
I don't want to wait for them to drip dry completely before I foil and store, mainly because I'm convinced every time you breathe in my house you are swallowing a handful of dog hair, and I am afraid of some making its way into the bottles as they dry. Will the star san spoil or anything inside the bottle?
