Hi all,
This is my third brew and first time using glass bottles.
I recently bought an inexpensive two-handled capper so i could reuse a load if wychwood bottles.
I primed and capped 40 bottles of Woodfordes Nog and put them away in a warm place 3 days ago. It was only today that I noticed that if I grip the cap with a cloth it is possible to twist the caps. Is this a problem?
What should I do next? I was going to transfer them to PET bottles but I'm worried that I might lose priming sugar in the bottom of the glass bottles. And there's the chance of oxidisation and losing carbonation.
If I ordered a countertop capper today would my beer be okay for a few more days until the new capper arrived?
Thanks.
