I've made several batches of wine and am not even a big fan of bottling wine when it takes significantly less bottles that way.
Making my first batch of beer and REALLY not looking forward to bottling. Also not a fan of spending over a hundred dollars in keg equipment to get started without knowing how much I'm going to enjoy making beer.
However This system for $70 looks like it should work with sugar priming in a keg to dispense just fine. And, if I decide I don't like making beer, I could use this as a skeeter pee (delicious and I strongly recommend) dispenser to help me avoid bottling for a summer party with minimal expense by just putting it in a fridge and making a kegerator later if I decide I need it.
It seems like this set up would allow me to upgrade any number of ways if I decide to. Is there any problem with getting started this way? Acknowledging that I'm still going to have to wait for 2-3 weeks for the sugar to carb the beer in the keg, that is.
