Does anyone know if IBC rootbeer bottles are ok for recapping for homebrew? I saw a bunch of em at Sam's the other day for cheap.
Thanks.
 
They used to be pop tops but that was years ago now that I think of it. I will have to check. Thanks for the reply.
 
I looked at a photo of them on wikipedia, and it looks like they may be difficult to cap unless you have a benchcapper. There's no underside lip for a wing capper to grab onto to pull the cap down onto the bottle. I can't tell if they're twistoffs, though.
