Quick question that I was thinking about the other day and finally have a place to ask it. My first homebrew (via the Mr. Beer kit) is currently fermenting and I plan to bottle it in the included 1-liter PET bottles so that I can tell when carbonation is done (via stiffness of bottle) as well as in the case that I do over-carb I don't want to have a glass explosion.
I can easily find reusable glass bottles, but I don't see many brown/green plastic bottles to use as a replacement for the ones that came with the kit, so my question is the following.
Is it possible to transfer beer that has conditioned & carb'd in a PET bottle into a glass bottle or will I just pretty much undo all of my carbonation and have a flat beer stored in my glass bottle? If it is not possible, can anyone recommend an alternative to this?
Thank you!
