Hey guys...so I am getting ready to bottle my first batch of brett saison and I was wondering if it would be okay to use regular 22oz bottles? I know that if you are actually bottle conditioning with either a dose of brett or sacch, you need to use 750ml bottles in order to withstand the pressure that will be created form the refermentation occuring in the bottles. However, I just planned to add priming sugar to the bottling bucket and let the beer carbonate as usual. This being a brett beer, I will let it sit for several months before consuming it in order for the flavor profile to mature. My concern is that after regular carbonation is achieved, will the brett continue to slowly chug away and eventually make bottle bombs out of my beer? Obviously the brett will continue to develop as it ages, but will the pressure in the bottles become too much for regular 22oz bottles to handle? Thanks!
