Corking the beer

Is it a good idea to cork the beer exactly the same way as wine? I got some wine buttles, corker and corks and just wandering if I can use it.

I would suspect carbonation and pressure would push the cork out. Any experience?

Thanks,

-Anton

have never done that but would think you would want to use champagne style corks and wires to hold them tight-- Buzz

I ran out of beer bottles during my last brew. Had a couple wine bottles, I make wine too, and some synthetic corks. I filled 2 - 750ml bottles and corked them. That was a month ago and they worked great. I've been keeping an eye on it and haven't noticed the cork trying to pop out.
