I don't know about the viniger & water theory, however, I have found that soaking the bottles at least overnite in denture cleanser ( I prefer Efferdent) works great. You may want to give that a try, I think you will be pleased with the results.

Cut a piece of wire coat hanger to the desired length,bend ends over so the glass won't be scratched. Use a small piece of thick cloth,old socks work well.

Sometimes on the smaller mouthed ones I pour some salt in, tiny bit of water, and shake.(After soaking) It usually gets most dirt and stuff out.
