Can I bottle carb growlers and wine bottles? If so what stoppers do you guys use? Thank you!
I've actually lighty carbed a few wine bottles myself - just a little plastic wrap around the threads. No explosions.
Yup. And there are people who have driven without a seat belt and didn't have an accident. Doesn't mean it's a smart thing to do.
No.
Well, you can but it's in the category of yes you can drive without a seat belt, yes you can ride a motorcycle without a helmet, and yes you can not always point a firearm in a safe direction.
That is, you can do it, but it's very dangerous to do it. Growlers and wine bottles are not made to contain pressure. Carbing requires you to create lots of pressure. When the growlers explode, the can blow with enough force to embed glass in drywall or in you.
How are they meant to not hold pressure when they are filled at breweries and sent home sealed all the time?
That's not a growler
It's a little keg
Why not use 2 liter soda bottle with a carbonator cap?
