I'd popped out yesterday and bought a second FV for racking off into (oo'er missus!), and before the bottling today I drilled the FV so that I could fit my Little Bottler - worked like a charm when the time came!
With everything sterilised and ready to go, I popped the lid off my brew for the first time and was pleasantly surprised by the aroma... being a beginner I went for the Muntons Mexican Cerveza... I started to siphon off the brew and was even more surprised by the taste... tasted just like flat Mexican lager

I primed the whole 21 litre batch with 90 grams of sugar - I thought about using Coopers Carbonation drops but thought I'd stick to standard sugar for this first brew. Like I've already said, the little bottler worked like a charm! Didn't spill a drop during the whole bottling process, so I've now got 21 1 litre PET bottles stashed in a warm place for a couple of days. Can't wait for the proper tasting session when there is a bit of fizz!
