I use a mixture of PET and glass. Glass for big long-term beers, PET tends to be used more for the quaffers. Even for a big beer I like to put a few in PET so I can get an idea of carbonation levels.
Gregor, how much grain fits in a 2L PET bottle? Looks like a great way to store grain and not have to worry about things getting into it.
I have over 200 glass and 200 pet. and I only use the pet now. So easy to handle chill fast and no cost after purchase. Reuse caps over and over and over..
BUT...
I rinse the bottle after I pour. Twice. ( Did this with glass as well) Next Morning I rinse again with hot tap water and hang out to dry..
It really is easy.. And I can not pick a taste difference between glass and pet. My palate must be shot... AHhh well Cheers
I'm sure this is a long-standing debate somewhere on these Forums and bottom line is if it works for you, then it works for you..
I meant PET bottles are rubbish as the beer inside never tastes as good as beer bottled in glass imho. It definitely won't last either.
You're welcome to compare the same beer in a PET bottle and in glass and decide for yourself.
re: cleaning. Glass is easier to clean as you can put them in the dishwasher.
Good luck cleaning them.
