Kilner Jars, I have about 24 500ml jars and 3 or 4 1 litre kilner jars, all used for collection and airing, also a few demijohns for short term storage of strip and a few 19lt cornie kegs for long term storage of fients, heads etc

Marked DJ plus litre Pyrex jugs as required

Snap - almost Identical to my collection of collection vessels. The Kilner Jars are great because you can cover the opening with re-useable gauze squares (cheap from any pharmacy) and only screw on the lid rings. This allows perfect airing as it's easy for the Angels to get their share through

I use all of the above - cut spirit lives in clearly marked JDs.

I use Cornies or my 1/6 barrels sankey kegs for storing strip.

I collect strip and gin in a DJ inside a bucket in case I miss the change, when collecting from the VM I collect in 500ml jars also in the bucket - I put 4 in at a time and only have to rotate the bucket to change over. I collect in the jars as I time the change over with a stopwatch to check I'm running at the correct speed.

That's a good idea about the bucket, I've almost over filled a jar on many occasions

I have overfilled,on many occasions and will be stealing the bucket idea for my next run!

These would be good then. Not seen them in the UK.

Pourers for jars.
