A lot of new brewers study up and get as far as brewing a batch of beer and freak out when it comes time to bottle it. I hope to explain some of the little details here.

Sediment will always be a part of the home brewers' life. Should not be a problem, as it won't hurt you. Most people freak out at it, but it won't be an issue if you pore your companies beer before you serve. This will allow you to serve the beer in it's natural light, flavor, and color...plus it's a nice thing to do.

I like the sandwich bag idea, ive never seen that before...but id probly run some sanitized solution through the spigot into the bag and let it sit for a few minutes in the bag

@WISDOMPRODUCTI0NS Threaded will NOT work.For smaller batches I also love using Grolsch bottles - swingtops are nice. They're expensive, but if you're into pale lagers it may be worth it to buy a 4-pack or two and make the bottling process a little easier with some 16 oz. bottles.

Sorry, I did leave some detail out there. I added some annotations to the video in that part. Go back and let me know if it answers your question.

Thanks for the tip on using the dish washer as a catch for overfilling... I can't believe how simple an idea that is; yet, I would never have thought of it!Does anyone bleach their bottles or just use a sanitizer solution?

Adding a Finings step to your Brewing can help settle particulates and clarify the beer. Generally this is done by adding something like Irish moss or Whirlfloat teh end of the Boil. Or boil & add Polyclar to the secondary carboy, 4-7 days before bottling. You can also wait longer before bottling...especially if a bigger brew. Cheers!

find a homebrew shop close to you or buy over the internet, there are many places that sell the supplies.
