Ok I'm a newbie to homebrewing and to these newsgroups. I have done a few extract brews which I am fairly happy with. I started this really to be cheap but now I'm looking for that balance between cheep and quality. When it comes to bottles I have been using 2liter soda bottles, they work fine but I've been finding that these are a little large if I just want one beer after a day of work. So finally to my question. I have been reading where everyone is using empty name brand beer bottles.
1 Most of those types of bottles are twist-top can those be recapped? 2 If those cant be used is there a type of American beer that is pop top ( I know Bud and Bud Light at the bar is pop top are these the same at the package store)Thanks Im really glad I read these forums before I went out and paid $10 dollars for a case of empties when I can get a case of Bud Light, if they work, for $14. HMMM empty 10 full 14 what to do. Hopefully I can get by without having to go to Guniess, Hiney, or Coronas. I know Im cheep.
Thanks L:B
