Thank you all so much for sharing your experience and info with me!! I really appreciate it! I have used these flip top bottles twice now, so I will get more replacement gaskets for them? Is there a normal timeline for replacing the gaskets or can I just flip the rubber gaskets on the next...

Hello out there to all you Brewers! HAPPY THANKSGIVING to all of you! So I have a question about the carbonation process? I have Brewed 2 different 5 gallon Beer kits so far. The first was an English Porter and the second was a favorite style of mine, a Hefeweizen! I'm having the same problem...
