Hi,
I just had a horrible experience(s) with counter pressure bottle filling. After several attempts I finally got the beer to flow OK. My only problem is that I didn't quite fill the bottles (12oz) all the way to the top. I'd say I'm about one and a half inches from the top, almost the entire neck of the bottle. This happened because I blasted Co2 on top of the beer before capping and I ended up blowing out some beer from the bottle. I'm only doing this to enter a homebrew comp and the deadline is next week. Will these to OK? Is it critical for carbonation levels for the beer to be right to the top of the bottle?
Thanks,
Mike
