My land-grant university - Virginia Tech - does all my testing and
analysis FOR FREE.  Any product analyzed in less in two weeks, with a
written report telling me whether or not it is an acidified food.

Many states have similar programs - you don't have to pay a lab to do
the analysis for you.

I then take this report and file it with the FDA (form 2570a, I believe
- available on the FDA site).

Basically, it shouldn't cost you a lot of money to get up-and-running.
And bottling costs should be about $0.50/bottle, plus ingredients,
glass, and labels.
