Bass IPA bottles...

[pkincaid]

Has anyone encountered a problem reusing Bass IPA to bottle homebrew? I thought they were the same size as all my other bottles, but it seems like the caps sit kind of crooked once you crimp them down. :\ Thank goodness I have reserves of other types... I'm concerned about the bass bottles holding the carbonation.

Are they good for anything at all, maybe corks? Or should I just dump em?

Btw... everything else bottled fine, so I know it's not my bottle capper or caps.

I hated bass bottles. I only had a wing capper though. They have very little lip for the capper to grab hold of. Had to use lots of down pressure. I don't think they'd be such a pain with a bench capper.

Yeah... I've pretty much set them aside and given them the stink eye
