This review is from: Mr. Beer Deluxe Beer Bottling System, 0.5-Liter (Kitchen)
I usually use glass bottles with a capper but found using at least one of these per batch helps me know when my carbonation is complete! The bottom is flexible after first bottling but gets solid once the beer is carbonated. Keeps me from wasting beer by opening too soon.
I also really like the size of these as I usually want to drink more then one 12 oz beer but not quite two – so I find the little bit extra that fits in these bottles is ideal for me.

I bought these bottles to use for second fermenting water kefir, and they work great! Whenever the pressure builds up too high, the bottom pops out and the get a little roly-poly but that’s better than exploding. Since I’m a newbie to brewing, I’ll wait to use glass bottles once I have more experience! I love these bottles, just bought another box because I’m branching out into ginger beer plant fermentation, and Jun tea fermentation, too. They come in a nice heavy box perfect for storing the unused bottles in, too!

I’ve used them once; they work well w/ the Mr. Beer kit I got for Xmas. They hold the amount of beer that the Mr. Beer kit produces. The caps screw on tightly and after the first use, they screwed back on tightly again. The caps are sturdy and I believe they can be used quite a few times. The bottles aren’t as thick as I’d expected, but I’m guessing that’s because, as described in the Mr. Beer instructions, when the bottles become very hard, the carbonation process is complete. I found that to be true, & if the plastic was much thicker, the bottle would be pretty hard to begin with.
I think they’re a lot more expensive than they should be, but they are exactly as described/pictured and do the job they were designed for well.
Don’t be fooled by the “Deluxe Bottling System” thing – what you’re buying is bottles & caps. The description makes that clear. In my opinion, it’s more than a little misleading to call this item a “Deluxe System” but the description is accurate.
The box is sturdy & is useful for storing the beer during the carbonation phase. I think if proper care is exercised it will hold up to repeated usage. If you don’t mind the price, I would recommend these.
