Sam Adams bottles have the foilish labels and are hard to get off. It is nice to have a collection of non-screwtop bottles with the labels removed to bottle into. 48 does a 5 gal batch. I moved to kegging fairly early - much easier and you can adjust the carbonation level over time if needed. I only occasionally break out the counter pressure bottler. I usually just go ghetto and use soda bottles. But the idea of growlers is appealing.

Yesterday a friend asked me what he should do with the empty growler he had..hint.hint.. I told him to bring it by and fill it up - but bring an extra growler for me as incentive!

Enjoy the brew!
