Hello,
My first batch is fermenting and bottling day is fast approaching, I'm going to be using 1L plastic soda water bottles from Aldi since they can take the fizz and shouldn't impart any residual flavours to the beer.
A friend has told me that if I pour away the soda water just before I fill the bottles I won't need to sanitise them, does anyone have any thoughts on this? It's very tempting to believe him, would certainly make things easier for me.
If anyone has had any experience with this I'd really appreciate your advice, be it a green light or words of warning
Thanks
