How about:- with a bitter finished & waiting & a new bitter on the brew with CO2 bubbling away nicely, I placed a plastic tube sealed with blue tack from the bubbling fermenter to the ready bitter fermenter. Under light pressure this keeps the beer fresh & I can drink it straight from the fermenter. Then a following brew will feed the next ready bitter & so on. Just a thought, it works for me.

I suspected this could be the case but as I am a complete novice was not sure. I live in Cyprus so cannot really use a keg until the weather cools down but the comments on the Cornelius Keg sound promising.

You'll have to drink the wine first, but you get the bottle. You will have to use the proper corks and a cage on the top to hold the cork in.

Problem is i dont know where to get my hands on some good glass bottles that have a good seal on the top to keep in the bubbles (a catch like on grolsh bottles would be good). i know plastic has many advantages in that it wont explode etc but theres something fundamentally wrong with drinking a sparking wine from a plastic bottle. im starting this lil project tomorrow hopefully so any advice would be very much appreciated!

If you are outside the UK then, I'm not sure. The corny kegs are an excellent way too serve beer, well worth the investment. I'm about to try a method of cleaning and sterilising bottle, because I too I'm fed up of washing 40 bottles. I'll post when I've tried it. Hi Rick

Can you recommend where to purchase one online? I’m struggling with the cleaning and sterilising of many a bottle at the moment and have noted the corenlius keg as a decent option.
