Im going to bottle some hot sauce soon and i bought a few of the 5oz woozie style bottles. Just need a few tips on safely bottling it.

Now i have read that to clean the bottles properly i should boil them in water for 5 minutes and clean the caps in hot soapy water. Then i should heat my sauce to above 90c for about 5 minutes and then bottling it hot into the still warm bottles and cap them. Turning the bottles upside down for 15 minutes to sterilize the caps.
