Smallest I have is 1/8 of a teaspoon and I've actually used it quite often when I was still bottling beer (I'm kegging now).
I could give a fairly accurate amount of sugar per bottle that way (for carbonation)
Kegging since it's lest costly, labor intensive, or is there a flavor/quality nuance?
 
Mainly because it is much easier and faster.
It's not cheaper as bottles are free*
Kegging requires buying kegs and a CO2 cylinder and regulator.
Bottling, just bottles, tops and a capper.

*Our local beer comes in returnable bottles, so you just buy a case, drink the beer, clean the bottles and use those.
 
I always preferred bottling because it made it easier to share beer without having pesky friends coming over. :laugh:

Plus, having rows of bottles set up just felt kind of comforting, and sometimes, I’d go as far as print my own labels, that was fun. I like bottles!
