hist-brewing: Bottle Labels

[Crystal A. Isaac]

If you take a razor blade and make a few lengthwise cuts in the labels they
will be MUCH easier to remove after soaking.

For someone who claims to be a home brewer you'd like Sam Adams would use
easier-to-remove labels.

Try amonia (diluted of course) and a wire brush, although I personaly just
throw the Sam Adams bottles in the recycle bin because they are such a pain.

    The majority of my homebrew gifting is done by taking a keg or two
to an event and making them available to the populace.  However, I often
gift the Royals a sixpack, and twice a year a case.  The bottles I use
include Sammy Adams, Anchor, Bass, and Guinness.
    PROBLEM:  Bass and Guinness are no problem, but soaking the
labels off Sam Adams bottles is extremely difficult.  Has anybody found a
quick-n-easy method for doing so?
    Thanks,
    Scotti
