Hello,
Started brewing recently, going to be bottling into 500ml PET bottles, what I wanted to ask is has anyone found an ideal sized box for storing the bottles once filled?
I don't have a huge amount of cupboard space so for protecting from the light boxes are going to be the best option. Ideally I would like to find boxes that when filled with upright bottles are full without free space to the sides or above. Something plastic may be good in case something leaks but I think cardboard might be better to block the light.
Thanks.

I have taken to using "Box it" storage boxes I find they work well and I strong hard to get a perfect fit on a box I use a little cardboard to divide the beers in the box..... I use glass bottles and Plastic Bottles I have not used the coopers plastic bottles and have heard they can breakdown after a few uses....
I ordered mine here they come in green or brown and use crown caps so you would need a capper with them.... Brown is the prefered colour for bottles I have Green Plastic and Brown Plastic I find the green are fine as long as they are kept out of the sun.....
My Ciders I do put into the green bottles as a rule..... and like you my clear bottles I like to use for my testers hope that is some help....
