Capping

[Cobba]

I've got a bench top capper with twist top 700ml longnecks, will they seal ok????

Should be fine, if you're worried fill one up with water and see if it leaks

No problem lots of people use them, me included.

They seem to be a little more temperamental than crowns, but will seal up fine. Just have a couple of extra caps on hand in case..

Twist them on a bit extra after you cap them to make sure they seal up, I used twist tops for years with a hand capper and never had any problems.

I use a bench top capper and never had a miss-sealed cap with the twisty bottle. I recommend giving the bottle a quarter turn after depressing the capper and giving it another go. Saw this method online and it consistently gives that round dimple in the middle of the cap.

Thanks for the responses, il just have to see how it goes, I put some soft drink in one bottle and capped it, it didn't leak any gas so fingers crossed, now to put another batch down.
