I hope this belongs here.
I've been looking at those BB's for a while, they seem like the ideal option between glass carboys and plastic buckets. They come with all kinds of options for taps and airlocks and what not. My question is should I buy just the standard bottles or are the taps etc. worth the extra money?
EDIT: actually it dawned on me when I went and read a post about no-chilling cubes and plastic resin stamps, that I have available these 18.9 litre clear plastic bottle that are used on spring water wells/ automats (whatchacallthem?). They have a handle shaped to the side, but they are PET- plastic, just as they say on the BB- website, so if that's the only thing that's supposed to make them more airtight than regular buckets, then I might not have to buy anything in the first place.
