Large crown caps!

[Mountain]

Hi,

Anyone know where to buy large crown caps?
-
Some large Hoegaarden bottles have been donated to me. I know these are capped but the size is larger. I do like the idea of using bigger bottles.
-
Plus, I'm not sure if my capper would work with them.........anyone got experience of this.

Cheers.

most of the large bottles I see in pesco are caped with champagne type corks not a crown cap

Yeah, most of the wheatbeers in large bottles are, but some such as Hoegaarden have caps.

my local hbs in bolton stocks a type of capper that does both regular size and the larger ones! he also stocks both sizes of crown caps.you'd have to give him a ring to find out the exact sizes! he'd probably send some thru post if you sent a cheque flea bay stylie!
