I was all set to make my kit today (English Brown Ale) and start my career as a homebrewer, and so I went to the basement today to grab my fermenting stuff, and start collecting beer bottles. ( I have a broken leg, so that's not as easy as it sounds!). Anyway, my husband went to the recycling center yesterday after assuring me he was leaving me "plenty" of bottles. I asked him several times if he was sure that there were lots. He said "tons!" Ok, guys, I have...........12! I also have 19 PET reuseable bottles with plastic caps that came with our "Beer Machine". So, I either have to buy bottles and have them shipped at a premium price, wait for about three or four weeks to buy them when I go to the LHBS (there is one two hours away that I go to when I go to my doctor's appointments), or find something else. What about plastic soda pop bottles? Will that work?
I'm so frustrated! I was all set to sanitize my equipment and get started, but I'm glad I looked for bottles first. Any (cheap) ideas are greatly appreciated!
