How do I clean my bottles?We reccomend rinsing them right after use so nothing builds on the bottle. We highly suggest you avoid dishwashers as it leaves a residue on the bottle that causes a film that makes beer foam, wine tainted and cider foam. A few days before your bottling appointment it's best to make a bucket of water and bleach solution to clean all bacteria from your bottles. Or soaking them in a bath tub in a water bleach solution over night. Bottle brushes are handy for any sediment in the bottle of glass bottles. If you're noticing your bottles are foaming for multiple visits in a row, a microscopic bacteria has built up in the grain of your bottle and its time for replacing, or a PBW soaking. PBW is "Powder Brewery Wash" Its a food grade dissolvant. You soak your bottles in a water/pbw solution for 12 hours and all contaminents dissovle off. Rinse and dry.
