I'm probably about to be flogged for asking this question, but here it goes. Is it possible to successfuly cap threaded bottles with a crown capper? Will it hold pressure? Is it safe? Will the homebrew leak out its co2? Does anyone do this? I was looking at a Bud twist off cap today and thinking to myself, "well hell, this looks like it would be fine to just recap and twist off when ready!". So, I took an empty Bud lite bottle that my sis saved for me (sweet of her to do that, but I told her that I couldn't use them for homebrew....or can I!) and capped it. I filled it w/ water first, to check a liquid leak. I had to cap it twice (on the same cap) to get it even. It looks like it'll hold, but I wanted to ask. No water leakage, btw.
