Thats a great attitude to have.

 

Friend, when I keg I treat it as one giant bottle.  This is one area where size doesn't matter.  I keep telling my wife that.

 

I'm a newbie as well, but I completely skipped 12 and 22 oz bottles and went straight to 1 liter bottles...They're bigger and it takes less time to bottle.  Color me Lazy!

The only downside I see in the 22 oz. that I bottle is that I can never get a clear beer on the second pour.  I need a bigger glass I guess.

 

What's a second pour?  Yeasty.  I like those quart jars with a handle, frozen.  They handle a 22 ozer. just right.  big_smile  Yum, I think I'll go do that NOW.

 

Brewski, i like the way you think.
