I've been planning on brewing some more malt/yeast showcasing beers (Belgians and such)considering the dreaded hop shortage, and don't have a kegging system yet. I've been wondering, what is the maximum CO2 volumes a standard, 12 oz. beer bottle can take without disintegrating? I would love to make a spritzy golden strong ale or a nice effervescent Hefe, but all I have are standard brown bottles, and I'm a little concerned about carbonating to the levels those styles usually demand. I understand that bottles are quite different among individual breweries, just wonder if you any of you guys have any input into bottling those styles.
Cheers.
