EZ cap bottles are a special bottle design that features a built-in Grolsch-style cap and gasket that latches closed with a strong steel wire assembly. The caps have a reusable rubber gasket, thus eliminating the need for standard crown bottle caps. This type bottle is very easy to use and simplifies the bottling process, but also cost approximately double the cost of standard beer bottles. They also do not come in 12 oz size, if you prefer smaller bottles of beer. However, their ease of use and longevity have made them a hit with home brewers who bottle in larger bottle sizes.

A racking cane / tube is a hard plastic, glass, or stainless steel L shaped tube that eases the racking, or transferring, of your beer from one container to another in conjunction with a siphon tube. Racking canes often have a plastic piece on the end that allow the siphons suction to pull beer from just above the layer of dead yeast and settled particles (trub) so to not cloud the final product.

A bottle capper is a sturdy device often made of plastic and metal that crimps bottle caps onto the top of filled bottles. There are several different varieties of bottle cappers varying in price and ease of use. Most entry-level bottle cappers are a twin-lever design that clamps onto the neck of the bottle and then plunges a metal bell-shaped cup onto the cap, thus crimping the entire cap in one press. Another more advanced capper is the bench top bottle capper, in which the same action occurs, but there is no need to clamp to the top of the bottle. Because a bottle rests on the bottom of the bench presser, the lever simply presses the bell-shaped cup onto the cap, thus sealing the bottle. Bench top cappers are somewhat easier to use because the lever is larger and allows much more power to be pressed onto the cap with less exertion.
