As a somewhat experienced homebrewer, I am not quite confident in my abilities enough to give too much advice, BUT...
If you want to homebrew, INVEST IN KEGGING EQUIPMENT!!!!!
I did, and it is has made the homebrew experience so much more amazing than I could ever fathom!
For under $150 (shop around, maybe better) you can buy a couple of "c-kegs" and a small co2 tank, some hoses (not ladies of the night), and a tap. C-kegs are just old soft drink syrup containers. Stainless steel cylinders, about 5 gallon capacity, gas line in, liquid line out.
I have had no greater DIY experience than getting my friends HAMMERED (or delightfully and sophisticatedly buzzed) on picture perfect pints of homemade suds.
I haven't had to sanitize a bottle (other than for making mead) in over 2 years!
Give it a shot!! You won't regret it.
