Hi all
Me and the wife need to bottle a brew that has finished fermenting. We haven't done a brew for nearly a year and our bottles were stored away and a bit manky after 12 months in a cupboard.
She has soaked the bottles in lemon scented Fairy Liquid for 10 minutes before sterilising them with sanitising powder.
I've heard you should only use certain cleaning products.
Will the lemon scented washing up liquid have ruined the bottles? We intend to rinse them thoroughly when sanitised before giving them a big blast all over with the steam cleaner.
Worried the chemicals in the FL will remain and taint the brew inside though during carbonation.
Any advice welcome lads
Dave
