Talked to our Beer experts over here and they said it’s ok to to clean your bottles with this as long as it is mixed correctly (5 ga. water to 1oz of sanitizer). No need to rinse after words.

After step 4 - Sterilizing with a metabisulphite solution using a “sulfiter”
you rinsed with water again…here in california our Water contains bacteria. Wouldn’t this be a bad mixture? I’ve been using Star San (Acid Sanitizer for Surface Sanitation) and then allowing the bottle to dry. On this Star San it says not to swallow…

Thanks for your comment John. A diluted household bleach solution is fine (that’s actually what Saniton is). Just be sure that you rinse your bottles and carboy really well!

I just read your post on sanitizing bottles. I just cleaned and sanitized a 5gallon bottle we used for wine making, using household bleach diluted with water. Is this method as effective?
