Bottling Homebrew

Bottles are de-labeled and washed, ready for sanitation.


















Bottle caps are sanitized


















Lid and airlock removed, final gravity was checked, the fermented beer is ready to be bottled



















Priming sugar is dissolved in water to add to bottling bucket, for carbonating the bottles.


















Siphoning line and bottle filler is sanitized


















Siphoning the beer from the fermenting bucket into the bottling bucket.

















Yeast cake left at the bottle of the fermenting bucket. Maybe next time I'll experiment with collecting and washing the yeast for re-use, but not this time.















Time to fill the bottles


















And finally capping










Bottles should be carbonated and ready for drinking in a few weeks.
