Ah!, now we're cooking. Thanks guys for a sensible cost effective solution. i knew there must be a way!.You beat me to it Phil, the above IMHO would be the easiest most cost effective to do what I believe you are trying to achieve.
Cheers Ross
Buy 1 keg and a gas bottle with a regulator and one cpbf. After your 2 weeks secondary force carb in the keg and then bottle it all with the cpbf. This way you get the benefits of having your beer force carbed and all in bottles straight away and you don't have a whole keg inthe fridge with only one beer.
You could even bottle 2+ batches in a day this way.
Do any of your friends have kegs? They could possibly let you borrow some of their equipment or maybe sell you their equipment as they have found out all the negatives of kegging and want to go back into bottling??
Cheers

I know one guy who primes with dry ice...
Fair enough but I daresay it would be a more involved & circuitous route than the relative simplicity of bottle priming, or better still, direct infusion from a C02 bottle.
Thanks
direct infusion from a co2 bottle to me is force carbing - which is what I was recommending. Direct infuse the beer with a gas bottle. then bottle that beer.
careful felten... don't get too negative or Admin will delete the thread...Apparently my comments upset dalpets and he has informed me that since I've never rendered ANY positive contributions to the forum/his threads, and that my sole intent on this forum is to criticise people, and that I'm the kind of person that gets gratification from publicly humiliating others, unfortunately he has hence relegated me to his ignore list.
Needless to say I am shattered, and this has made me rethink my whole view on life.
Can you taste the sarcasm? I'm not sure if this guy is blind or just a drama queen, but I'm leaning towards the latter. Anyone else get a stupid PM along these lines?. BTW I would have sent a PM but the thought of trying to be forced to defend myself via PM's from baseless allegations pissed me right off (also the fact I'm apparently on perma ignore).
No! YOU go back and look at all your slanted replies on the various threads. I've given you my sincere views of your modus operandi by PM. I don't need public support for my views as you appear to need it and I don't think it's appropriate, anyhow, on an open forum.
I apologize to all others on this forum for this stuff and I'm sure you're not really interested anyway (felten seems to think he can garner your sympathy) but I'm finished with this distraction and hopefully he has the sense to, as well.
Hi everyone,
Just wondering if one does not want to go to a full kegging setup and wants to omit bottle priming if it is possible to force bottle carbonate brewed beer and, if it is, what equipment is available to do so.
Thanks for your input.
