Question ? Can you cap twist off bottles beer glass?
Question ? Can you cap twist off bottles beer glass?
I tried, I failed with about 50% of that batch.. bad day. Some sealed, most did not.
That was with a wing capper.
I broke the first twist off I tried to cap with my bench capper. I know when to submit....
I asked for pry off bottles from friends....... I now have several hundred on hand, clean and initially sanitized (2 months in gathering) and throw away about 50% of the ones given to me now, as they have crap inside them and it's not with washing them.
As I keg now as well... I have not bottled in several batches... but still want to for several reasons..
End of the day,,, skip the iffy screw tops, ask around for pry offs, and before you know it, you'll be saying STOP..ENOUGH.. or just take them politely, and cherry pick the best ones, dump the rest.
just didn't see how you could crimp one over the threads ?unionrdr said:The glass on twist offs is thinner as well. another member recently mentioned that there are special caps for twist off bottles to crimp on. Didn't show'em though. It'd be interesting to see the minor differences. Then maybe my super agata bench capper could use them.

Th guy just said they were special caps,never showed'em. Not sure myself...
