Brewer’s Guidance
- Inspect before filling: Check each bottle for chips, cracks, or defects. Do not use damaged bottles.
- Clean first, sanitize second: Remove residue and films with a proper cleaner, then sanitize immediately before filling.
- Use pry-off caps: Pair with quality crown caps, including oxygen absorbing caps if you want additional oxidation protection.
- Fill height: Aim for consistent headspace for even carbonation and a solid seal.
- Conditioning: Store bottles at a steady warm room temperature until carbonated, then chill and enjoy.
- Labeling: Use removable labels or a marker on the cap to track batch and date.
