I bottled a batch tonight for the first time since I upgraded to a bench capper.. After capping, I noticed a few (particularly the 22oz bombers) of the bottle caps would rotate on the bottle after capping. Keep in mind the caps were soaked in Star San, and were wet when the caps would rotate, but should that concern me? I'll check again after a few hours and the star san dries out, but it seems weird..
I noticed this cap rotation when I was wiping the bottles down with a rag to clean them up after bottling. With the rag I can generate quite a bit of torque on the cap, so I wasn't sure what was going on.
I tried hitting some of the bottles again with my red baron wing capper, but still some would rotate, whereas others were very "fixed" in place.
Anyone else experience this at bottling? Don't worry? Its got me kinda worried about the bottle cap seal.
