This may be a dumb question, but anyone know if you can use champagne bottles? I have one in my basement that has a nice lip around the tip of the bottle, but I haven't tried to actually cap it yet...

most wing cappers wont work. if you have a bench capper it might. depends on the bottle.

It must be over 300. I don't even know how many I have. Probably closer to 500, but 300 for sure.

Hmmm, about...

300 12oz bottles

24 20oz

16 16oz swing tops (EZ)

6 1000ml swingtops (from germany, they have porcelain tops and a wood carrying box).
