Hi LeithR
I don't mind bottling a few and putting in the shed if i want a few bottles of a cheap I use 2lt pop bottles,I've only used my KK once over Xmas with a coopers real ale. It was a nice brew but did lose it's flavour a little at the end like you said,I've just put an Woodfordes wherry in the empty one. I have a coopers IPA and stout nearly ready to put in the KK and easy kegs next,also will have to put some of it in bottles because not enough easy kegs to take all of the brew.
