Getting prepared to bottle up my first 4 gallons of mead.. traditional, peach, blackberry to be more specific.. all made the by Brays, BOMM method.. plan to age them, drink every 3 months.. let a few go 1 full year..
I am trying to decide between: corking, caps and flip tops.. the plan is to drink some as I age it so not looking at 750ml at this time..
I know if I cork, I will get a floor corker.. do these to do caps as well?
Are flip tops (swing top) not a good choice for mead? I see a lot of people post about them..pro/cons? plenty available out there but reading that its not air tight as cork and cap?
I am thinking 500ML.. for a good size.. taste as I go.. Thoughts on 375ML?
Good sources to buy a multi-use floor corker/cap machine, bottles, corks or caps..
Thanks
Peter
