I want to try a carbonated cider. Not champagne style, but I would like a good deal of carbonation.
First off, I am a college student, and cost effectiveness is essential.
I found a local business who will give me their wine bottles for free.
All I would need to do is buy a corker and corks (can corks be reused?), which is fine.
Can a wine bottle hold the carbonation? Or do I need a champagne bottle (read that wine bottles cannot hold carbonation or something?).
What bottles do I want?
Also:
Lets say the wine bottles work. How will I know when they reach proper carbonation? Will I have to uncork each bottle to check carbonation?
