Syphon it carefully into cleaned old beer bottles with 1/2 level teaspoon of sugar. Or 2 ltr plastic bottle with a tsp of sugar.
You can take it round to your mates and show it off then.

As above, I just scale my recipes down to about 21 litres. Gives two trial jar's worth (one about 4 days in and one at the time of kegging) and a full corny. :)

Fermenting: nowt (sadly). Drinking: still a few bottles of my imperial stout knocking about . . . it's rather good now
