A friend is about to bottle his first batch and asked me if it is OK to bottle in 72 oz growlers (as if I'm some sort of expert). I'm assuming it would work, but those suckers might take forever to carbonate.
Right or wrong?

This gets discussed ad nauseum, almost weekly.

Bottom line: Possible, even sometimes feasible, but not 100% guaranteed safe. I won't personally risk it, not because I don't want to lose beer (well, that too), but because I don't want to lose my $10 etched growler from the local brewpub. Your choice, it could/should work. But what if it doesn't?
