What about this, what about that, what about outlaying more money, more space & more things to break down & F#%k me around???

Get real, Bottling is convenient, simple & cheap, if it aint broken, don't fix it!!!!

Besides, I don't let brewing run my life, I have plenty of other hobbies for that!! :D :D :D :D

KISS principle!

Its easier to walk to the bar and pour myself a pint out of the tap rather than opening a bottle and get a nice clean beer without havent to be careful about leaving the yeast in the bottle.

Not to mention i clean 1 keg vs 30 Longnecks/60 stubbies.

Yeast, what yeast? I can pour the whole bottle with only a thin "dust like" coating which sticks to the bottom, thats the beauty of the glad wrap method, you can see it settle out, then hurl it into the fridge for a week to lager it & it is clear as a bell!!

Washing bottles? how long does it take to hot rinse 30 bottles? about 10 Mins!
Granted, filling 30 bottles takes a little longer than a keg, maybe 30 - 40 Mins, but this gives me time to enjoy a few cold ones, escape the Missus & kids, as well as taste my newest creation prior to carbonation.

Some of you guys are obviously fanatical about brewing...great if that is your main hobby, For me it is simply a means of supplying my self with a nice consistent, economical & enjoyable beer. & the proof is in the pouring, when you can count the mouth fulls by the rings on the glass all the way to the end....AAHH! Nice drop!!!

Cheers, Mick.

Yes, he doesnt sound to positive about his experience though, he was used to castor sugar that has no smell, the malt and hops boiling away didnt agree with him I think.. :roll:
To be updated shortly....
