Bottle priming

[WaltG]

I'd thought about using these to bottle prime. They're accurate enough for handloading ammunition. Your thoughts on homebrew?

Weight is much more accurate than volume. Especially with sugars that can be of different densities depending on humidity, etc. It's a lot easier to prime the whole batch instead of doing each bottle separately.

If you don't have a bottling bucket then go for the separate bottling.

I would only ever hand load with a scale also. Not that those are bad measures for powder. I just like my loads to be really consistent.

Sounds like a huge PITA. Prime in your bottling bucket and measure once per batch, instead of once per bottle.

I agree. Just get a bottling bucket, or build one & bulk prime. Easier & more consistent.

I have a bottling bucket, just seems some are more carbonated than others.
