Excellent, for the time being I will probably just keep doing what I'm doing with the primary in the vessle, and secondary in the bottles. 95% of my beer is consumed by me but the 5% that I take to friends and family thats the stuff that usually gets sediment mixed into it from transport...

Hey guys, im wondering how I could carb my beer without using sugar but still bottling. The reason I want to do this is so after fermenting is done I can run the beer through a filter to remove any extra yeast and sediment. I was thinking about buying a keg and siphoning filtered beer into it...

I think thats what I'm going to use also. Probably not the dry erase ones, but they have printable reusable labels.

What brand of glue stick do you use? I used the UHU brand, the yellow package but they came off. I labeled everything then put them in a box and didnt touch them for a week, but when I did they fell off on their own. Some had partially come off bottles that hadn't even been touched yet.

I've tried avery shipping labels now and they stick well, hard to get off after, but a quick spray of "goo gone" takes the glue and crap right off, makes it real quick and easy

I didnt have a problem with the ink running just cant seem to find a glue that sticks to plastic but comes off easy by soaking in water or whatever. I was thinking super glue on a couple tiny spots like say the corner or something but I figure they would never come off lol

Has anyone successfully labeled a plastic PET bottle? I tried the milk thing, it didnt work for more than an hour. I tried glue sticks (UHU brand) and they seemed to work great but a week later every label fell off. I read not to even try the gelatin method as it wont work for plastic...
