Just got a brewer's best deluxe kit for christmas from a very good girlfriend.
She got me 12 22oz bombers with it, but obviously I need more.
Question is are there any particular company's bottles better than others? I know to stick to brown for the most part.
Also, while at my grandparents house for the holidays my grandma gave me 6 grolsch bottles that my mom actually brought back from Belgium in the early 70s.
I'm pretty pumped about having these bottles. They have porcleain caps instead of plastic like a lot of the newer ones. Almost a shame to take off the labels. I know to replace the old rubber gaskets on them, but do I need to worry about bottle strength at all? From what I have found to read, it seems older isn't usually bad but sometimes stronger and of higher quality.
Thoughts?
