They will, in fact. These bottles are used for a second fermination and to carbonate my homemade Kombucha. Ease of use The bottles' caps keep the carbonation inside and prevent it from leaking out. These bottles are fantastic!
The height of the product is approximately 8 inches. Without the topper, it's 6 inches tall, and with it, it's 9 inches tall. With the topper, the height is increased to 5 inches.
I bought these bottles, but I'm not familiar with the cooler. They're not standard size, if that helps.
Yes, it appears to be commonplace. Other bottles I tried on included a growler from a brewery, which had a slightly larger gasket but seemed to work fine, as well as metal swing clasps!
Selected User Reviews For YEBODA 12 oz Amber Glass Beer Bottles for Home Brewing with Flip Caps, Case of 9
except for the fact that one of the bottles broke while I was washing it before using it for the first time. The bottom of one bottle popped off in one piece, without shattering or cracking, leading me to believe it was defective; the other eight bottles work perfectly and I've used them to make kombucha with no issues. br>The reason for my negative review is that I wrote the company and told them what had happened and asked how they wanted to handle the situation. There has been no reply. I wrote again, saying that I was pleased with the product but that if they did not contact me to resolve the problem, I would leave a negative review. There has been no reply. br>Because of this, I'm hesitant to place another order with them. Next time, I'll most likely go with a different firm.
To make my kombucha's "second brew," Excellent for flavoring and, of course, sharing with friends! I like how big these bottles are, because they can easily fit on my fridge shelves standing up. I was initially perplexed as to how to open and close the bottles (because an earlier review stated that it was assembled backwards, which I did not find to be the case). It's a delicate tug of war. To show you how, I made a video. Product of excellent quality and well-packaged. Extra stoppers were included, which was a nice touch. I would strongly suggest it.
16 oz. , yes. These fit in a lot of places in my fridge, but not all of them, and I didn't want to drink more than 12 oz at a time. All of the tops appear to be suitable for me. Yes, I was contacted by the company and agreed to write a review. Of course, they didn't offer anything in exchange for a positive or negative review, but it did remind me that when I first got these, I considered buying another set before giving them a chance. They were unavailable a few days ago after being used for a while, but they are now. WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT Right now, I'm going to buy another set.
There was no damage during transport. The logo on the cap isn't my favorite. This is my first time making beer at home. I got stuck thinking I'd just go out and buy Grolsch bottles to 'empty. ' Grolsch has reportedly stopped selling its beer in flip top bottles and now only sells its 12-packs in capped bottles. I did find a couple of singles with the flip top, but they were each $4. It appeared that I'd have to do the unthinkable and purchase 9 EMPTY bottles for the price of a full 12-pack! br>br>I was looking for a bottle capper and came across some reviews. It appeared to be the most cost-effective option, as well as one that did not require cleaning. However, reviews indicated that doing so without breaking a few bottles would be difficult. I spent about $40 per gallon on the beer I made. in . plus many hours of labor, so two bottles missing would be a major setback. br>br>After reading reviews, I was convinced that I needed different colored bottles. Blue and green were the colors I was looking for. There were other brands that offered those options, but customer reviews indicated that there was a lot of shipping breakage. Despite the fact that 12 bottles of those brands were less expensive than 9 bottles of Yeboda, I chose Yeboda because I needed to bottle as soon as possible. br>br>Unfortunately, I placed my order on Thursday night, which meant they would take four days to arrive. Even with Amazon Prime, it took 5 days for them to arrive, but they were delivered in 4 days with no broken bottles. I didn't like the fact that each cap has a Yeboda logo on it. That information was not provided, and if I had known, I would not have placed an order. A star has been deducted. br>br>The bottles appear to be well sealed. I have 2- After adding sugar to make carbonation, the bottle needs to be condition for 3 weeks. I'm on week two, but because of the chilly spring temperatures in my house, it may be another week or two before I can open them. br>br>They come with nine extra seals, so I'm guessing they'll wear out quickly. To compare and contrast, I'll probably cap my next batch with bottle caps, as washing these seems like a chore, and if the seals fail, the beer is ruined. So, how often do you replace the seals? Overall, these were successful. br>br> The bottles have a thick, solid feel to them. They have the appearance of standard beer bottles. Colored versions with no logos on the cap are what I'm looking for.
It's simple to clean in hot, soapy water. Underwent a thorough rinsing with hot water. It keeps well in the refrigerator. The bottles will not leak. Easy to open (I can see this person having some difficulty getting the latch open/closed if they don't have any ailments, such as arthritis). On Amazon, it is the cheapest. Other merchants overcharge for what appears to be inferior quality, resulting in more customer complaints through online reviews. I made homemade Kahlua in these bottles and aged homemade vanilla in them (the end result). The packaging is ideal for family gifts. When packing in gift bags, I used the included bubble wrap sleeves for extra cushion.
I've never had a problem with these bottles when it comes to my homemade vanilla. Because I prefer heavy-duty gaskets, I appreciate the fact that they come with extras. They are difficult to clean, but given their shape, I wouldn't expect them to be.
I brew at home with a lot of carbs (3-5% carbs). Most brews require 4 volumes of CO2, and these bottles never retain carbonation as well as a traditional crown cap bottle. If you're going to keep a batch of beer for more than a few weeks, a crown cap is the way to go. Don't get me wrong: they're rock-solid (I dropped them and they didn't break), but the seal isn't great. I have three orders of these bottles, all of which are identical. At this point, I'm only using these as test bottles. They are not something I would buy again.
I've used them to make ginger beer, which is a milder ferment; I haven't tried fermenting Kombucha with them yet, but I'm confident it will be a success. If you're looking for a unique way to.
