Labelling bottles

[OldConkerwood]

I'm supposing labels are equipment!
does anybody label their bottles, I do it for vanity/Information.
I also put the "Born On" date (Budweiser) on my bottled brews, usually the day I brewed, but does anyone use a different date like when fermentation is complete or the day they bottled it etc.
Just interested to see what's going on out there.

I too label all my bottles with Name, ABV, Brew number and brew date. I bought special none permeant tables so they just peal off, and have a template on computer for printing.

I sure do! Name of beer, nice picture, ABV, and "condition until date"- tries to help me stop drinking them all before they've flipping conditioned properly! Colour laser printer on polymer easy-peel labels. I bottle each brew with a different colour cap but trying to remember which is which and when they should be opened is too much like hard work...

Cheers for your info,Jono, Ben, where do you get the peelable labels from will they work with an inkjet printer.pictures sound good for the ones I give away as gifts.

Wine, I use neck collars. They're quickly and easily cut from a sheet of A4 - gives 12. I just write on them with a sharpie. And they're readable without removing the bottle from the rack, as they hang down
Beer/cider, I just sharpie something on the cap.

If I want the details, they're on the computer.
It's not pretty, but I'm not putting them in a competition.

I might get some label paper for my printer sometime.
Or I might not.

I label the crates rather than each bottle. I include the name I have given the beer, the ABV and the date bottled

I use these

they're laser only so I do them at work.... there is a word template supplied and I use inkscape to design the labels....

I laser print on plain paper and stick on with milk.

How easily do they come off?

[JonoT]

I think mine were cheaper and not waterproof but peel very easy when dry and leave no glue. I'll try to find a link....

I do the same as rpt with name, SG, FG calculated ABV, bottling date - an A4 sheet gives you 65 labels can't see much point in more than that. I'm not a competition enterer.

Not sure where to go with this, as only for personal consumption, so I am happy just writing batch number on the caps at the moment. -"@ th details are in my phone if I feel the need to check the ABV while I am drinking!
