I bottle quite a bit in 12 oz beer bottles with crown caps. Not very
classy, but it's a good size for when I don't want a full 750 ml bottle.

My local home brew store sells 6oz bottles that use beer caps.

The 187 ml from piwine may be crown cap as an fyi. They also have half
size 375 ml's that can take a screw cap and another that takes a cork.
They have
t-tops also, which make it easy to use the bottle up over time. That's
what I use for most of my vinegar.

Charles,
I agree, I have sparklers still under crown cap since 1997. It
requires access to a capper, not all wine makers have cappers. That
was all I was getting at. I use the plastic seal ones, I haven't seen
cork caps for a long time.

I'm not talking about crown caps. These are ceramic caps with a rubber
washer seal. They are ired to the bottle with a "cam lock" so that
they can be opened and resealed until all the cooking wine is used. I
simply kept it in the refridgerator til done.

I'll try to link to a picture.

Since this is a cooking wine, it needs to be in a bottle that can be
resealed. I do have a capper though.
