Last time I removed labels, I used baking soda and it worked well. I’d like to do it again… but I forgot the soda/water ratio. I was searching for the pages I saw before and found some conflicting results.

  1. https://winning-homebrew.com/how-to-remove-label-from-beer-bottle.html 16 tbsp (aka 1 cup) per gallon of water.

  2. https://liquidbreadmag.com/how-to-remove-labels-from-beer-bottles/ 4 tsp (aka 1.3 tbsp) per gallon of water.

Those are VASTLY different amounts. Most webpages list the 16tbps/1gal ratio. Only that one site listed the 1.3 tbsp/1gal ratio. While baking soda is cheap and not an issue, I found the difference to be a little weird.

Anyone have any experience with using baking soda and can offer personal accounts of what ratio you used?
