FastRack Bottle Drying Rack & Tray Kit - Bottle Drying Tree Alternative; Efficiently Dry or Store Your Beer, Wine or Bomber/Belgian Bottles; Must-Have Addition to Your Home Brewing Supplies Review

If you drink a lot more than me and wash a lot of bottles down the sink at once, then one of these will probably come in handy for you. I only drink one bottle of beer a night, so I give each bottle a quick rinse to keep fruit flies away, then save a few dozen bottles and wash them in the bottom shelf dishwasher. So mine are already dry when they come out of the dishwasher. So I don't really need this rack - I just crate my drying bottles until the next brew.

These racks are just what I needed for bottling day. For me there are no more bottle trees. They are as strong as they need to be. Revane wanted me to appreciate the warmth. I do not know what it is. Not that these things were decorative. They are functional. They do what they are supposed to do and they do it well. If you brew and bottle your own beer, you can use these items to sanitize, drain and dry your bottles without touching the inside of the bottle and taking up no more space than a…

Fastrack is a great drying solution and I definitely prefer it to any bottle tree. If you brew with standard long necks you will love it. But if you like shorter, wider bottles (like those used by Sierra Nevada and Lagunitas) that just doesn't work. The bottles do not fit neatly into the holes without pressing against each other, and since all the bottles are slightly crooked when inserted, you lose the ability to stack the racks on top of each other. If the rack were made with a little more…

I bought this dryer for my wife who has been bottling kombucha for a few years. She uses a swing top brew bottle and has been wanting to try this rack for a long time. When it arrived she unpacked it and was pleased with it. After the first application I was completely amazed. It dries bottles very evenly and holds swing-top bottles with ease. The flip top bottles are quite large so she split the rack rather than stacking them on top of each other but it works great. If you reuse bottles and…

I mainly use this to store beer bottles between their Star San sanitization and bottling. This works for all of the 12 ounce glass bottles I've collected, and they work for Mr. Beer too, although they don't quite fit, so I don't fold the FastRack when I use them, which I don't usually do anyway. so that the upper bottles do not drip onto the lower ones. It's also great for picking up empty bottles and keeping them out of the house. It is VERY durable when used with a glass bottle. Just make…

Pros: FastRacks are the best way to store and dry bottles and the two rack and one tray set is the best deal on the market. Cons: The new plastic is obviously more brittle than older devices. I ordered them on 01/01/19 in anticipation of the next batch being made at the end of February and delivered along with the rest of the gear when they arrived. The batch took a little longer than expected but when we went into the bottle today 3/17/19 we found that one of the racks was broken. It still…

I actually bought this FastRack to replace one of those old school round plastic bottle racks that was the only viable option when I first started brewing beer. My bottle tree had stacking rings and could hold up to 90 bottles but was bulky and awkward to handle. It didn't store well because it's round, the bottles hang from hooks and the whole thing wobbles and rattles if you trip over it. It was difficult to move because it couldn't be lifted or the rings would fall apart. Only benefit was…
