Super Agata Bench Capper and Beer Bottle Caps

February 16, 2008 – 2:12 pm | by jaygaulardcom

I told you I ordered a bunch of stuff this week.

A few days ago, my new Super Agata Bench Capper arrived. Along with it was my 288 beer bottle caps. Well, I guess you can use them for any kind of capping, but I am going to use them for beer. I considered getting the hand capper, but for some reason, I got this one. I am not sure why. I think the hand cappers are good too.

Here is a photo of the Super Agata Bench Capper…

It looks like a car jack, doesn’t it? I tried it already on one of my seven saved bottles. It did a nice job. We’ll see how it does on a bottle full of my home brew.

Here are the caps…

Nothing special there. They also sold caps that absorb the oxygen. I decided against them for some reason or another. All I was looking for was regular bottle caps that would hold my freshly brewed stout in the bottle.

As I just mentioned, I only have seven glass bottles so far. When I finish the beer in the fridge, I think I will have twelve. Good thing Laura’s friend at work just bought her a six-pack of Guinness in bottles. Now, I will have eighteen. That’s not nearly enough, but it is a good start, considering I just started collecting the bottles last week.
