I bought six cases in assorted sizes and extra lids. I have a regular waterbath canner but wil be adding a pressure canner as soon as they appear in stores. I also have extra beer bottles and will be stocking up on crown caps. As soon as the garage is cleaned out, I’m getting a pair of rabbits JUST IN CASE. The original rabbits can live out their lives as pets, but if things get bad I’ll breed them and ‘process’ the offspring.

Good for you. What do you plan to put in the bottes?

You may want to look at Grosch type bottles. They're much easier to seal. All you need to replace are the little rubber rings every few times you bottle.

They're a bit more expensive at first, but I find they're much easier to deal with.
