h1. Bottling beer - sanitizing bottles

http://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=60919

q.
On bottling day, I fill my kitchen sink with a hot oxyclean solution and attach a bottle washer to my kitchen tap. 

I fill 12 bottles with oxy clean, shake them up, pour them out, and rinse them with the bottle washer. 

Then I submerge them in my 5-gallon bucket of StarSan solution for a minute, and hang them on the bottle tree to drip dry. 

Repeat with the next batch of 12 bottles until all bottles have been cleaned and sanitized.

Here's how to make and add priming solutions:
1. Boil 3/4 cup of corn sugar (4 oz by weight), or 2/3 cup of white sugar, or 1 and 1/4 cup dry malt extract in 2 cups of water and let it cool.
