Well, i made a list of things to get from brewstock, and the total comes out to about $180 for the things i want. Could be less.


Over time I've learned that one of the absolute truths of homebrewing is you will always find something else to spend money on. If you enjoy the hobby the money is worth it.

Yeah. I'm trying to get quality products, and also things that will make brewing life easier. Such as bottle washers, auto-siphoning tubes, tube clamps, bottling buckets.

Speaking of bottling buckets.

They talk about bottling buckets, as in buckets you just place your bottle in so to prevent mess. However, i've also seen some with spigots at the end. Do these work well with bottling? Do you have to transfer your brew a 3rd time to this bottling bucket in order to bottle, instead of transferring twice, then to a bottle?

Also, i've read, that when you are transferring your brew, you don't want it to splash anywhere. Will the spigot give you less control over splashing into your bottles than say a tube?
