Will these bottles work?

[EddieTheBrewerLADET]

Hey everyone,

I was able to get my hands on an unlimited supply of these Korean, Hite Beer bottles. They're an odd size at 1pt 5.6floz but I think they could totally work. Hows the lip look on them?

Let me know your thoughts.

Thx,
Edward

Should be perfect. And almost dead on 22 oz. How unlimited? I'll trade you some 12 oz.

The lip kinda reminds me of the bit sharper undercut on German bottles. They should seal real well.

Cap one and find out, Or I could come pick up a few cases from you and test them?

Bottles should be fine. Do they take the standard US caps, or do you need the larger 29 mm European caps (and associated capper)?

 

[EddieTheBrewerLADET]

Fairly certain its standard US size. Practiced capping one and it seemed to seal really well. How can I know for sure?

Doesn't look like they'll work very well at all.

I prefer right side up bottles. They tend to be easier to fill and cap. Otherwise, it only gets about half full, the other half on the floor, and then there would be too much head-space. Don't even get me started on upside-down bottles...complete nightmare.

Someone seems to have rubbed the S off the label.

If you can't turn the cap easily, your cap is probably sealed.
