So I've had bottles sitting up for a couple of months while it was too cold to brew. They had been drank from, rinsed and stowed away in the bottom of a wardrobe. I've a smash beer fermenting as we speak and need to sort out my bottles.
I realize I probably should have rinsed, sanitized and dried the bottles before storage but I didn't. Most of them are clean but have found a couple with a small bit of mold or fungus in in them. I'm thinking of brushing them out and sterilizing them with some baby bottle cleaner or white vinegar.
Is this a good idea or should I dump the bottles? I don't really want to go buy 40 new bottles.
Regards,
Jack
