I was dropping off some boxes at my local recycling compost and notice a incredibly large pile of amber bottles. Some of these where of course broken, but a lot of them where intact. I was thinking about grabbing a large number of bottles and then cleaning and sanitizing them. I just ordered 1lb of PBW and 8 oz. of star san so I would not think that cleaning the bottles would be a problem. I have a couple of concerns/questions:
1) Would a good soaking in PBW be enough to clean bottles that came from a recycling "Dump."
2) I was planning on looking at every bottle in a light to see if there where any cracks. Do you think I would need to be careful of weakened glass strength of some sort. If so, is there a way to test for this.
I know this question my seem silly, but I just wanna hear other peoples thoughts/experiences with similar matters. I feel like this could turn into a very cheap way to get bottles.
Thanks for any input.
