Guys,
Just something I've wondered about - is it possible to can home brew? I know that barleycorn brewers (one of the "u-brew-it" type places in melbourne) offers canning for customers as a cheaper alternative to bottles but I'm sure they've been able to justify the setup costs.
But is there a possibility of doing it at home?
I ask because cans stack better than bottles in an esky and the heat transfer in an esky is much better. I do a fair wack of camping and I cant (always) justify taking a keg and bottles take up a lot of room and I have to bring them home with me. Where as cans can be crushed and disposed of at the nearest refuse point.
Probably just a pipe dream - but it doesnt hurt to ask the question.
Cheers
