Syringe size? I hear big syringes are worse

[klokke23]

I've read that big syringes put too much pressure on the walls and therefore it's a big pain to operate. Thus 3-5 ml syringes are much better. Thoughts? Brewing 280 ml of product in 20 ml vials. Already ordered syringe filters, so bo bottle tops this time around.

You want a 60ml syringe and a caulk gun. Having to do 3ml at a time would be like a fate worse than death...

While it is true a big ass syringe will have a less ideal wall to plunger ratio and will be a PITA, a caulking gun helps tremendously. Just don't squeeze on it like a trenned out ape ( I like to be able to see each droplet fall, not come out in a stream).

A nice compromise is a 10ml syringe. Fill it up once per vial.

As I brew for personal consumption, like we all do... I go with 20ml syringes and vials. Easy

And of course, a caulking gun
