Okay so I'm getting really irritated tonight at this new bottle problem for me. About 3 months ago, my friend gave me some bottles that he had been saving from an old bar. Some were coors banquet bottles, some bud and bud light ...anyway you get the drift. However, they all appeared to be the same height. So, being the anal pain in the butt I am, I decided to get rid of my hodge podge of different sizes and switch them all to the same size bottle. Now, I am noticing that some bottles have lost pressure and leaked. A few times when I peaked into my fridge to move out some bottles that had conditioned, I noticed a real distinct hop smell and wondered how I could smell them through the bottles? Well, duh... They had leaked. So, now after a day of cleaning and getting rid of all of my old bottles a month ago, I am finding my new batch of bottles may not be all that. So, how do I go about ruling out the bottles that may be my culprit? Anyone know what size and dimensions a bottle should be to be okay?
