Just finished making my first kit. Learned a few things in theprocess. My brother-in-law gave me one of a Better Bottle carboy. He uses them in his beer making. I also have two glass carboys.
Here are the pro's and con's from my Better Bottle experience:
Better Bottle pro's:
- light weight
- not so slippery when wet.
Better Bottle Con's
- the liquid in the airlock was drawn into the when I moved the Better Bottle due to flexibility of the container walls.
I will use the Better Bottle again.
I would like to attempted using vacuum removal of the CO2 for my next batch. I assume the plastic does not have a breakage concern like glass. Has anyone used aBetter Bottle during vacuum removal of CO2?
