Getting ready to bottle my first batch over the weekend, assuming I can empty a few more bottles this week. I have viewed the very helpful bottling guide in the sticky section above, and I understand that I am probably trying to build a better mousetrap here, but I have an idea stuck in my head and I have to ask. Suppose I was to go to the local Army/Navy store and get one of those plastic collapsible five gallon water jugs with spigots on the caps. I wash and sanitize the bag and spigot, add my priming mixture, and then siphon in my beer. I then screw on the spigot cap, attach a hose to the spigot, and a bottling wand to the hose. Have I created a simple, easy to store bottling bucket, or am I asking for my beer to oxidize or go spilling out all over my floor?
