I am going to a funny question; do you open all the bottles to add? Why not add priming?
I prime each bottle and cap one at a time. I also dip the bottle in 190 to 212 water for sanitizing. I will go over the amount asking of priming slightly. I donāt trust putting prime in a bucket and stir and wait hopefully that the sugar goes throughout evenly.
Iāve added extra yeast to the bottling bucket
Dammitā¦ work gets in the wayā¦ Oh dearā¦

You can trust batch priming and itās a lot faster and easier then priming each bottle.
You boil your priming super in a a pint or so of water and after itās cooled add it to the bucket before siphoning. The bucket gets stirred when the beer enters. I give it a little more stirring with the bottling wand. All my bottles are consistent.
Iāve found that brews that have aged extensively bottle prime the least well. Iāve taken to adding new yeast in these instances
Just use a spray bottle of Starsan or dunk them in Starsan instead of the water. Much easier and just as effective providing they were cleaned prior to that.
It doesnāt have to get in the way. Iām told that technically I donāt have to go to work. Unfortunately, Iām also told there might be consequences to not showing up!

That sounds a little bit dangerous. I think a safer option would use StarSan after cleaning & rinsing. You could use a spray bottle as @Rburrelli suggested or use a bottle rinser like the Vinator Bottle Rinser.
Old habits are hard to break, but I might have to take a leap of faith and try something different.
Iāve got one of these. Dunk the bottles inStst San and let them drain.
Iām a rinse bottle after use, star san and shake, store upside downā¦ re-Stansan before bottling, drain and bottle

I have always rinsed after use, save time!!
I have had a bottle tree for years. Also handy for hanging and all kinds of stuff to dry like tubing, a racking caneā¦
