So I was reading some posts here on the homebrew stack exchange, like I do, and I came across thisthis question. I always use K-meta when bottling because I keep my bottles clean and all I need is to quickly sanitize them when I'm ready to bottle.

The thing is, from all the reading I've done up until this moment, I've been under the impression that one absolutely must rinse K-meta when bottling beer, as it can impart off flavours of some kind. After reading the responses to the other question I'm curious if I've just been wasting my time by boiling water to have a clean rinse after sterilization.

So, my question is, can I bottle my beer without rinsing K-meta santization solution out of the bottles?

Can I get away with not rinsing Potassium Metabisulphite when I'm bottling?
