As well as the Coopers PET(90), I use normal 1.25l PET bottles(40), 340ml Wild Turkey & Cola bottles(8 ) and 330ml Coke 'Buddy' bottles(11). They all work fine if you keep out of the sun (I refuse to buy sun block for the bottles). My new collection of Grolsch bottles(24 - some not ready yet) will also be indoors-types.

Note that almost any glass drink bottle with a screw top will take a plastic PET screw top - ie: I am yet to find one which does not.

The big issue with doing it this way is I have a very compelling reason to go the bulk prime route.

Does any one know if, in aust., the 330ml and 250ml are twist or crown top? If I can cap them, maybe a mixture of sizes would make a nice set for a brew?

I believe the Grolsch are crown but not 100% sure. That said I don't think I have ever seen a twist top 330ml bottle...
Coopers.
