24-bottle cases

[Enoch52]

Is there a good place to pick up empty 24-bottle cases? I have a few and they're exceedingly handy, but the ones I have are cheap and wearing out.

Not sure if ur just looking for cheap card board ones or long lasting ones but i order these from CW crate.

Little costly but they have worked wonders for me, i've cycled 6 batches thru them wihtout any problems and i plan on ordering a set for 22oz bottles soon.

Every time I visit total wine I get 2-3 of them for free.

Thanks guys, that's awesome. m3n00b, are you getting those because you're buying cases of beer, or do you just ask for empty cases?

I usually buy a few bottles of beer here and there. They have stacks of empties up front. I just ask for a couple, tell them I'm a homebrewer and they tell me to go for it.

old plastic milk crates hold a case perfectly. make great for storing and conditioning as they stack neatly. i get them from my dad but check the local grocery store they may sell them after their deliveries
