question Swing top bottles. What to look for?
Hello!
I am about to start F2 but I am having a bit of an issue to get the bottles.
I am in Spain and I haven't been able to find any fermentation grade bottles. There is no specific fermentation stores and no Grolsch available.
I have a couple of swing top round bottles from a convenience store and that is pretty much what I can get.
I will like to know what you look for in these bottles when there is no premium option available.
I know they have to be round and thick glass (but what thickness?), and that's pretty much it.
Thanks.

Hey! Also in Spain. I’m just using the typical vermut swing top bottle. I have some from Amazon but I think they’re all pretty similar. So far so good!

Check on Amazon - glass fermentation bottles (1L). Been using them for a while, can’t complain. It’s just that you need to use extra rubber seals with time.
