Default Re: OMO: buying a new set of homebrew bottles

see if you can get him a bottle tree or two at the same time. the biggest PITA is washing the bottles and bottle trees are the doggyzz doooodazzz.

1 brew kit = 30-40 500ml bottles don't be tempted by the bigger ones no matter what the reviews say as the 500ml work out to 1 pint. once you pop the top of any homebrew bottle the sediment starts to mingle with the contents due to the CD so if you can only get a pint at a time in a glass then the other pint sitting in the bottle is going to be full of sediment by the time you finish your glass full.

barrels are different as they are a closed container.
