Bottled off my second batch tonight (a Cooper's bitter kit), and decided to try the instructions in Revvy's bottling thread. The first time, I sat on the floor and ended up making quite a mess.
My neck has recently been giving me troubles (probably from throwing my 3yr old around while wrestling), and I had not been looking forward to bottling on the floor. After reading the thread, I thought, "Hey... It might not be so bad if I were sitting in a chair instead of on the floor". It was perfect! I didn't spill much, and that which I did spill ended up in the door of the dishwasher!
I just wanted to post a BIG THANKS to both Revvy (for his bottling advice), and Grinder (for his dishwasher idea)! If anyone out there dislikes bottling, then that thread is a must-read. After my first bottling session I said, "I've gutta pick up some kegs -- bottling sucks". I'm not so sure about that now! Kegs = less money for more buckets to keep the pipeline going!
So... Thanks! Drinking a nice, flat, green, bitter that was leftover after I ran out of bottles (around 1L left... tastes good, so it certainly won't go to waste!).
