Ah, I see. Most bottlers use a bottling bucket of some sort. They rack the beer into another container to get it off of the trub. Then they add the priming solution (dissolved sugar in a bit of water), stir gently, and bottle.Ras Skipper said:bottling bucket..??....i was just going to bottle them from the tap at the bottom of my fermenting bin...
chriso said:Agreed. Bottling is a PITA. I have severe hand problems (mostly due to carpal tunnel from my job), and I usually start having cramps and spasms halfway through bottling... That means that by the end, my hands are shakin' and I'm splashing beer everywhere. Then I still have to cap them all!
Needless to say, I can't wait to get a kegging system OK'd by SWMBO.
