Thanks everyone for your input.
I think I'm going to try 2 or 3 with heat shrink tubing around cap and bottle lip under cap. I'll have updates in a month or two, sooner if I'm mopping up by basement! :)
Ya, but I had some growlers from a local brewer. By the way I'm not sure how far afield it is available but my wife and I both have come to love 'Ten Penny Ale' from Olde Burnside Brewing - East Hartford, CT
Thanks, I've got some flip-top bottles as well, but was thinking that bottling 1/2 gallon at a time would make bottling go quickly. I was hoping that the shrink wrap would buy storage time for the growlers.
I'm getting ready for my first brewing and have been collecting bottles. I've got some growlers that have screw top caps. I was wondering if it'd be wise to shrink wrap around the lids to fight off the potential for loss of carbonation?
What do you think?
