So I just wanted to share this because I was in need of clear 12oz. Bottles that I could crimp. My two gallon batch of straight strawberry is clearing now, and in about a week I need about 24 bottles. I decided to buy a 24 count case of Corona, drink the lot, and strip the labels. I downed three of them tonight and started the striping process.
I put 1.5 quarts of hot water in a pitcher, added 10 capfuls of white vinegar, filled a rinsed corona bottle 3/4 with water and dropped it in. Two hours later I removed the bottle and scrubbed it with a sponge. Check it out.

So far it has worked really well in a short amount of time. The back label is completely gone, and the front is short to follow.
I know many of you already know this bit it's new to me, and I just wanted to share. All together it's cost me about $27, and I get 24 beers to drink and all the bottles! I don't think it's that bad.
Have a great night everyone, take care, good luck with your ferms!!
