Well, I just bottled my first batch this past Sunday, and I think I have a problem.
My question to everyone is, how secure are the caps suppose to be? They don't appear to be on there very well. I even had a couple bottles that I guess I didn't line up properly, or apply enough pressure to, as their caps came right off when I happened to grab the top of the bottle
Additional info:
I'm using on old bench capper that my dad used when he homebrewed, so it's pretty old. It probably hasn't seen use for at least 15 years, so I made sure to grease it up. It seemed to operate as it should anyways.
The bottles are a mix of generics from the LHBS and Warsteiner bottles. Standard gold colored caps.
