The 633 milliliter "oo-bin" bottles which are widely used in izakaya are almost twice as large as the standard 330 ml size. Using these, I don't have as many bottles to wash. Although restaurants pay a small 5-10 yen deposit for these bottles, you might be able to get some by going an liquor store and asking.
These larger bottles are not so well suited for sampling during bottle conditioning, so I bottle into a few small bottles as well. But once the beer is conditioned and in the refigerator, the larger bottles are much more convenient.
