Just got some 10cc vials for some winny, and I was wondering what the best method for sterilizing them is. Any suggestions will meet with karma.

These were just the plain vials that you put the rubber stoppers in. I baked them in the oven at 250 for 10 minutes. Your thoughts....

Sterilization of vials and stoppers:
1. Clean your vials
a. Wash with soap and distilled water, rinsing with distilled water
b. Rinse a second time with an alcohol of your choosing. I prefer to use isopropyl. Acetone is also acceptable
2. Dry and Heat your vials.
a. Place them upside down on a baking sheet that has been properly wiped with an antiseptic.
b. Preheat oven to 350*. Place vials in oven and let set for about 30mins, allow the vials to cool to room temp and then repeat the process.
3. Soak stoppers in a hydrogen peroxide solution for a minimum of 10 mins.
