BrentonP1525228379 Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Hi Everyone, I am Brenton from Brisbane. I got my Home Brew kit for my birthday a couple of weeks ago and have so far made the Lager that comes with it (tasted that last night) and currently have a sparkling ale in the FV(day or two till it will be close to bottle time!) My question, is as I am going to need to have a few conditioning at once, I am going to need a good way to put some caps on the tallies I have saved up. Any ideas on something effective/cheap that will make this process easy for me? Cheers, Brenton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Brew Master Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Welcome Brenton, I suggest that you buy a bench capper, you can get them on Ebay. Cheers, Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Yes, the only way out if you have glass is to buy one and there are a few cheap cappers on EvilBay. If you got the DIY kit then just use the PET bottles that come with it. Alternatively if you can't afford a capper, you can get the PET bottles for around $1 each.

LeonardC2 Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Wing cappers are cheaper,if that's an issue. They're about15-18 dollars here,some around $12. Also,the oxygen absorbing caps may help retain aroma/flavors in the bottle longer. I'm going to experiment with that on my current batch. I'll report back on that in a few weeks to a month.

Matty A Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Welcome Brenton. I picked up my bench capper for $25 at K Mart when they sold homebrew supplies. I know BigW sells them but I couldn't tell you the price. Caps are pretty cheap this way. I buy around 100 for $2.50 at BigW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
