I actually will ue nothing but bleach in my bottles. Given copious
quantities of hot water and a jet bottle washer, the only unusual taste
in the bottle is my meads. Other sanitizers I've found dicey. Bleach
at 1/4 c. per 5 gallons (WAY strong) is good for what ails you after a
15 min soak, my most reliable sanitizer......the most popular in food
preps nation- wide.
Iodizer can be okay, but will not loosen the crusty bits like sodium
hypochlorite (bleach).
Washing soda is the absolute BOMB on labels. 1/2 cup in 20 gallons will
have most of the labels floating on the surface overnight.
