Better Bottles

[geocorn]

For those of you that have tried the better-bottles, I would love to hear you comments.

I've got one, and so far I've only used it for temporary storage. I did notice it doesn't retain any odor of the wine after a quick rinse like fermenters do.


I'm planning on ordering another one soon.

Sorry George, I forgot my password.

What size do the Better Bottles come in? It might be cool to have a 7 gallon one with a spigot for juice primaries.

Arky,


I can reset passwords, so if anyone forgets, all they have to do is send me an email.

Chief,


How long have you been using them, I've only had mine for a month or two and I like them.

Has anyone used the better bottles for aging? I'm a little hesitate on long term storage.

What are better bottles?

Jim, check this webesite catalog, it would explain it better. I have a couple and they sure lessen the worries.

Better-Bottles are plastic carboys made from PET plastic as an alternative to glass. They are guaranteed to be 100% safe to use for your wine making without imparting any off flavors or aromas. In addition, they weigh about 1 pound, instead of the 12-15 for traditional glass carboys. So far, everyone that has used them has had nothing but praise for them.


By the way, since they are plastic, they do not shatter when you drop one!
