Washing and sterilising is a pain, but screw top PET mostly (with a few flip top glass) so no bottle bombs to date.
I do envy your fancy set ups, but with my time and skills I'm still very pleased with what I can produce from kits. For around £25 and 2 hours it's solid investment.
To be honest after bottling only a few brews the tedium and pain of faffing around with:
Washing bottles
Sterilising bottles
Putting beer into sterilised bottling bucket
Bottling beer
Capping beer
Storing said beer
Beer exploding / glass fragments everywhere
Running out of bottles
Is exactly why the idea of one single pressurised vessel is so appealing at the moment. 😂
