    Hey all. I homebrew alot, and brew alot of Styles suitable for the cork top 750 ml bottles.

    I brewed a Blonde Ale that I plan on bottling with Brett. Just Curious If anyone has experience using corks other then the Blegian corks. My LHBS does not sell the belgian corks, but almost every other kind of cork. I just dont want to put in an order online for a bag of corks.

    Thanks for the time!

    #9 corks, but then you should cap over them.

    I just bottled a saison with cork and cage 750ml bottles and used mostly a cork described as "reference" on the package. I also use a couple #9 corks; the #9s come out very easy at the pressure I bottled at (about 4 vol CO2).
