thats the 330 ml bottle, but the 750ml looks the exact same.
and sorry for the repeats

But my brother said that you could probably find a dozen drinks in any old grocery store
with glass as the bottle. and they come with caps already !!!

Come to think of it, im drinking an “Arizona” right now and its 100% glass, 1L in size bottle.
$0.99 drinks.

maybe ill try to ferment an arizona…

I bought a 24 case of “PERRIER” water.
they came in bottles, 750ml in size. ive been set ever since.

And if you flatten the water, you could brew it. or drink as is.

Mason jars is also a great 2nd option ive seen, but never done.
perrier 100%.

Ok, for bottles, you can either try asking your local pub for any bottles that don’t get returned, or you can get them for about 50p a piece from the local home brew shop.

Proper wine bottles will require some sort of corking device.

Or if you buy beer bottles from the “HBS” or scrounge them from the local pub then you’ll still need a crown capping device (mine was less than a tenner) and some crown caps (bags of 50, can’t remember how much – not dear).

I’m guessing, but I wouldn’t suggest plastic pop bottles are such a good idea. Why? because they’re not really suitable for high % ABV liquid. Yes, they’re used for various ciders and beers, but those are all less than 10 % ABV, I’d guess that high % stuff may have a similar effect to putting petrol in a plastic (P.E.T. and/or Poly Carbonate) bottle i.e. it might not dissolve it like petrol would but I’d guess other probable degrading of the plastic i.e. perishing or becoming brittle.

Sticking your finger through the side of the plastic and spilling the contents is a waste of perfectly good booze.

Oh and you can sometimes see stuff on ebay and maybe even your local freecycle list.
