[Growwine] Unusual topic, but

[Margaret Marshall]

HI Larry! We have purchased some equipment from St Pats of Texas because their prices are very competitive, even with shipping.  They have a capper called a stelvin capper.  I am not sure if that is what you are looking for.  Their email is www.stpats @bga.com.  Ciao, margaret

  Does anyone know of a Canadian supplier who can access the European size crown caps (the 29 mm size, not the more usual 26 mm we see here in Canada on beer bottles and sparkling wine).  Also, does anyone know where a capper or adaptor could be found to use these caps?

  I think that keeping 1-3 year wines in such containers (assuming you can locate the right bottles) would be a very wallet -and -environment friendly way to bottle wines.  Think of that riesling or gewurz, vidal or prairie star that you will drink over the next three years.  Why not a bottle cap?
