Here's my over-the-stove ergonomic bottling setup. Not shown is my homemade pail perch which helps exclude white foam.

These yellow caps contain a drip-less valve for upside-down storage.  I attach a upside-down label to my third hand (T-square), then transfer the label to the bottle.   Not perfect, but this process helps appropriately place the label.

How many ounces do your bottles hold?

These are 8oz plastic bottles which I purchased from Brushy Mountain. Although small bottles require more bottling effort, it's the perfect gift size.
