Wine Brewing Supplies
Can I put wine from a wine kit into beer bottles and cap them for storage?
I drink a good bit of wine. Unfortunately, I recently took many bottles to the recycle center at the wally mart. Last time I went to the recycle center, I asked if they had any wine bottles that they could give me. They told me they weren’t allowed to give them out! I’m not giving them out anymore to wally mart either. If people really cared about the environment they would enourage re-using over recycling. I hate to buy bottles and have them shipped 100 miles from Austin, the nearest brewing supply store when my neighborhood alone probably puts that many in the trash can. I do have a lot of beer bottles. I also have a capper and bottle caps. I’d like to know if bottling wine in beer bottles is advisable, or any other ideas for obtaining cheap or free wine bottles. I have already asked my relatives to save them. I do have plenty of beer bottles. Thanks.
It should work.
Store them upright so there is not wine in costant contact with the cap. Wine is a lot more acidic than beer so it is not worth risking having the coating on the cap wear off.
