Thanks!

just the standard size 750ml bottles and the corks were just in the kit. It was a costco kit. Never had this problem before.

I don't know lol I've never had an infection either and I had a couple that i was concerned about and never a problem Sent from my SGH-I747M using Home Brew mobile app

Try using a new pail

I literally only rinse my bottles with hot hot water after use and leave em upside down. Sanitize right before bottling. Good to go
