I have finally bottled my Munton's IPA. I'm not going to post everything here, but here is a direct link to the details of bottling day, complete with pictures, if anyone is interested:

Thanks to everyone who offered tips while I was working on my first brew. I hope I reap the rewards in a month or two...

Oops, needed to update that signature...

If you ferment in a different bucket than your bottling bucket, then you will not have to worry about clumps next time. You would also not have to stir in your priming sugar, as you could pour into your bottling bucket before you transfer. Hope the beer turns out great

I do like this idea, but I just don't have the room for another big bucket. I would if the beer would taste much better, but I think its just a convenience thing isn't it? (plus a chance to mess up the beer by aerating it)

Thanks
