You should have no problem if the beer has finished ferminting. The plastic bottles have a great deal more flex than you might think. However, reguardless of the type cap you use, don't drop one or be prepared to clean up a mess.

I've only used them with normal 750 ml bottles. They might be strong enough, but I cannot answer directly.

The caps can be used over & over. I've done around 30 bottles and still use the same three caps my unit came with.

I was not able to find anything on using bottle caps with this machine. I would not recommend using bottles caps with this product however, you can contact Sizzix and they will be able to let you know for sure if you can use this item to flatten bottle caps.

No; the cap used is much larger. I personally have not seen compatible caps from cheap disposable bottles.

Yes, I use it all the time on 1 liter TeaJava bottles. The caps are the same size as smaller soda bottles.

Yes. I've bought several of these caps and use them on the glass standard opening bottles.

I have used these caps on 3 and 5 gallon jugs. If you mean the 1 gallon jug similar to the standard milk jug, I would say no.

The spring caps are not designed for the 12 oz. beer bottles, there is no place for them to grasp on the side of the bottle neck. You need to get a capper and caps.

Yes, that's what I bought them for. However, in hindsight, I would suggest buying ones with caps.

Here's my scientific answer (haha) -- the bottles I got from Crate & Barrel exploded; these did not. So these resisted the strength of the explosiveness of my last batch of kombucha.

Regular wine bottles don't have the grooves that the metal prongs of the caps fit into that hold the cap on the bottle. If the wine bottle originally had a flip-top cap, then you can use these.

Hi, I've only used this on liquor bottles and ones for oil/vin. They are cheap enough that you can find a use for them if it turns out not to fit a beer bottle.

I haven't brewed this one yet to comment on the alcohol content. They give you way more bottle caps then you will need (unless you are extremely clumsy.). These kits usually yield a few bottles over 2 cases.

There's Real Good Chance They Could Melt and Be Hard Eject. Also Could Make a Very Difficult Mess to Get Out of Chamber. I Recommend Not Try This with Tipton Snap Caps !!!

Enough caps to fill 5 gal worth of 12 oz bottles so you will be fine for one bottling session, i just save my 22oz bombers from beer i have drank when i bottle instead of keg as it cuts cleaning time and bottling time in half. My ABV i believe was 5.4- 5.8

About 5.7% and I wanna say 20-30 caps but not sure as I never use them as I have my own bottling gear.
