Does anyone have about 50 beer bottles they would like to give me?

I can pick them up.  I brew my own beer and it is bottling time.

We might at work. I can find out if our own brewers have any designs on them. Reply to this to remind me to ask. ^_^*

we always have bottles at our place. we live in Allston, though, is that cool?

[snakeyesboy.livejournal.com]

Sure, I could come over sometime this week maybe in the evening?

kegs?

I am a former professional brewer with a ton of homebrew equipment gathering dust in the basement, including a bunch of Corny kegs, carboys and various other doodads. I'd be happy to help you make the jump from bottles to kegs (trust me, you will never look back). Post a reply here if you're interested and I'll try to check back soon.

That would be AWESOME!!! I've always wanted to try kegs and yes I am very interested!

For some reason my email got bounced back so I sent you an LJ message.

Hey, I'd be very interested in the kegging equipment too, if the OP doesn't take you up on the offer. I'm about to convert an old chest freezer into kegerator/lagering duty. I'm on lyu(a)speakeasy d0t net.

I have 99 bottles, but they're sitting here on the wall...


(Okay, I'm sorry, I know this is davis_square and not b0st0n, and I should have offered some helpful bit of advice, but I just couldn't help it. Forgive me!)

take care not to let one of the bottles fall! or else you'll only have 98 bottles left on the wall. :(

If I'm having trouble sourcing bottles, I can usually find enough on recycling day. After scrubbing with B-brite and a bleach solution soak, they're as good as new.

do empty IBC bottles work? I know where you can get a regular supply.

[snakeyesboy.livejournal.com]

Hmmm I am not sure - are they twist off? (I forget). Generally the non twistys work best.

[koshmom.livejournal.com]

Yes, they are twistoff. Looks like the ex-pro-brewer is your best bet.

and if you get more bottles than you need, you can always do this:
