Any #homebrewers have a counter pressure bottle filler as their go to?

I bought a used stainless steel one and thought it’d make the bottling easier last weekend…what a production! And still a mess! I’m sure the garage still smells like sour raspberry.

1. I had to rig up a janky tee CO2 connection…I’m sure I was loosing C02…probably need something easier to connect via ball locks

2. I think I had the CO2 pressure way too high (i realized after I cracked the keg it was probably a short or malfunctioning floating dip tube on foam, sealed and will deal with next weekend)…so purging the bottles was a rodeo hanging on

3. the filler was heavy……and explains why I see everyone using DIY racks and stands….i was trying to use a tall glass pitcher with starsan to hold in between but was still tipping things over

Overall curious if anyone else has one dialled smoothly into packaging.

Packaging procrastination is my white whale!

Hey #homebrewers What is your favourite hard-won wisdom? A brewer told me: fill your bottles over top of the dishwasher, with the dishwasher door down (hanging open). Then to clean up - simply close the door. Taadaa! No mess.

I was gifted a homebrewing kit and managed to brew my first batch of home-made beer. It's not bad!

After the first batch, it costs about 75 cents to brew your own beer at home. That is some nice savings.

Metric or Fahrenheit?

As a Canadian we use metric for a ton of things but we tend to cook using Fahrenheit.

Trying to make the full switch to metric but old habits dying hard.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays #homebrewers! 🍺

@akrennmair looking forward to the holiday reading! 🍻
