Help!

Bottling doesn't have to be a chore. I can do 40 bottles on an hour. You just need a good good process and some practise.

I find it a cathartic process. Also something to keep the mind occupied during boring meetings when working from home

Why not buy a 5 litre stainless steel keg such as below and transfer 5 litres at a time, it will fit in your kitchen fridge and attach a 16oz CO2 bottle and tap, job done and cold beer job done and cold beer.

If you are anything like the rest of us you are going to end up with corny kegs anyway so you might as well get yourself a second hand larder fridge, kegs and taps (plus a few other bits but I don't want to scare you off )

... Cos they are a fortune?

... Cos they are a fortune?

A matter of opinion

I am not saying it is good or bad.
But simple research shows, of the 5l vessel market the MJ stainless keg IS one of the most expensive options.

But they are very nice.

Yes, I have two and they are great to direct transfer to from a cornie. The OP could of course use one of the much cheaper 5 litre beer kegs as used by commercial brewers and fit a tap and CO2?

Tbh, I wouldn't might 5 of them to do a brew.
Replace my bottles entirely.

But then I hold 4 brews in pattern. So thats 20... £1600

FFS for that I could buy a new braumeister (and thats something else that isn't going to happen)

Yeh but if you use cornie kegs then you only need one of these for however many brews you wish to drink at one time, I have 4 cornies and just have one or two of these in the fridge.

My reason for these would be to replace bottles and cornies.
