DavidP17 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Iv been saving my glass crown seal stubbies and have noticed on some of them they say "no reuse". Is it vital to abide by this / will they definately explode or is this just to cover the manufacturers incase something does happen? Am quite happy with my PET's would just be good to be able to give the glass stubbies as samples for friends/family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty A Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Its just to cover the manufacturer. I have heaps of stubbies and longnecks with these ranging from becks, coopers, tooheys and have never had a problem. They are just weaker and are thinner then normal bottles and I have heard they are easier to break while capping. The best commercial ones to use are the coopers longnecks, though as hell.

Hoptimus Maximus Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 The best commercial ones to use are the coopers longnecks.. If you are looking at 750ml I second that, Personally I also have 320 x 375ml Pickaxe Brand bottles and they are my favourites. Sometimes I just find a 750ml size a bit big for non session drink. (I like a beer with my dinner). I love the PET bottles to take to the cricket. Adelaide oval does not prohibit alcohol in PET bottles - the rule book says cans and glass bottles. One day someone will flatten Harbhajan Singh with a full PET bottle and they will ban them too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryF1 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Yeah, Coca Kola bots, filled with a stout or dark larger, usually dont get given a second glance, when entering a sports venue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty A Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 If you are looking at 750ml I second that I definately was. I like the size of the becks bottles, which are the 330ml ones because I can fit a clean 25 in my milkcrates where as normal stubbies or longnecks I have to figt to fit them in.

NewtownClown Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 The problems associated with the "single-use" twist-tops relate to the thinness of the glass; the threads can be broken when using a hand capper or the neck gets crushed when using a lever capper, they are also prone to thermal shock so sanitising with heat (oven, dishwasher, etc) will weaken the bottle. With a bench capper and no rinse sanitiser, they can be re-used many times. I've had coke bottles opened and sniffed by security at the SCG. When living in South Africa, we would sneak bottles of "cane" (white rum) inside loaves of unsliced bread. [ninja] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus as for coke how hard is it to sneak a flask of rum in your pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
