Im still fairly new at this. For my first three batches Im convinced I went overboard in cleaning and sanitizing my bottles. Going forward heres what Im thinking of doing:
After drinking a beer, I wash the bottle (without soap) and then turn it upside down to drain and dry. Early on bottling day, I run all the empties in the dishwasher (again without soap) with extra heat to kill any germs. Then, before I actually begin bottling, I spray Starsan into each bottle, turn them a couple of times to coat the insides and then place them back in the dishwasher rack upside down.
Is this good practice or do I need to do more? Thanks.
