    How I bottle without making a mess

    I know lots of people do it your way, but I don't really see the advantage over using an auto-siphon and a bottling wand right from the carboy.

    Driedsticks Pretzels with a kick!

    I've made something very similar to these before and they're always a big hit.  Rather than regular oil, I use Orville Redenbacher's Popping and Topping oil.
