Cornie's are taking over my house!

I have 2 families living under this one roof, two male adults, two female adults, 3 teenagers and 2 young 'uns! It's getting daft now! :)

I like those little cornies, ideal for small brews and taking to parties.

Although saying that, I have mates that would empty a 19 litre jobbie in a sitting without thinking about it....

hmm, I feel shiny envy coming on, I think I need more cornies :D

They are very nice but there appears to be a fault in your signature. It says that most of them are sitting empty!

Yep, I just lost a full size and half size cornie full of beer. I dunno where it all went wrong (started with forgetting the Whirlfloc, doh) but I had to dump the lot. :( I do have 10 gallons of Summer Lightening almost fermented now and 20l of a Geordie beer kit my dad made almost ready so I shall be filling some soon. With two sacks of M.O. to get through and two more coming this weekend this house is going to be running a 24 hour a day brewery over Christmas! :)

I bought the small cornies for precisely the reason you mention Garth. I've just done a 50l brew (the Summer Lightening clone in my sig) in the hope that I can fill two full-size cornies and one of the smaller 9l ones to take to a mates house. I've even sorted the portable gas and tap. Gassing device can be got for about £10, tap was £8 from H&G and I also bought a further five 16Gm bulbs for £4.99 from H&G so I'm now fully portable. :)
