I have a load of old wine bottles that have been left on the shelf, not properly rinsed and completely open for the air to dry on anything that was left in the bottom of the bottle. Is there any easy way to clean these without any special equipment? I was thinking some boiling water and a little dish soap and fill em up to the brim to soak for an hour, then just sanitize as usual... Would this be enough?
Thing is I don't have any kind of brush to use on the inside so I'm worried this might not be enough, and hard to tell if its clean with the dark glass bottles. I'd like to avoid getting a brush also as this is my last batch before I go travelling and it would be kind of wasted.
