    Let me know how this turns out. I bought everything to do it a couple months ago, but have not taken the time yet. Very anxious to try it.

    I'll be sure to. Gotta let the bottles sit for 2 weeks before i can put them in the fridge. So thats like feb 13th, Ill prob update this post with pics of the beer and how it tastes ?

    Been brewing off and on for years... awesome the selection of pre-canned beers you can order and reconstitute yourself.  The cap-able empties can be purchased at you local beer/wine/spirits outlet.

    I have a friend that has been homebrewing since the 80's and has sold me bottles and even capable champagne bottles. I drink enough beer myself though so most of those bottles were already mine lol. Im just starting out so im using malt extracts

    Nice!

    I have made around 90 batches since 1994.

    P.M. me if you ever have any questions...

    P.S. Invest in Cornelius Kegs and a Co2 Bottle, beats the hell out of Bottling!

    Thanks for letting me know! Ive already invested like $250 in this for getting started and trust me I've been drooling looking at the more fancy pro stuff. Next thing I want to get is a better kettle and something to keep my fermenter cool. I live in florida and been putting my 5 gallon bucket/carboy in a 10 gallon metal bucket filled with water and frozen bottles to keep it cool. I ruined my first brew because it was too warm and ended up tasting horrible. 

    Do you think its ok to keep my bottles just in a box? I took my thermometer out of my cigar humidor and put it on top of the boxes and its says right now its 76 degrees. Is that too hot? I read that you want the bottles to be a bit warmer than your fermenting temp and that the highest you could go is 80 degrees.
