How much does a Better Bottle breathe?

Sun Mar 15, 2009 10:08 pm

How much oxygen do plastic better bottles allow to be transfered into the beer? Are they more like a plastic bucket or more like a glass carboy or maybe somewhere in between? Anybody have experience with aging sours in a better bottle?
Enjoy Great Beer!

I know a few people around here have been trying the better bottles for Flanders Red... Here is the link to the thread http://www.thebrewingnetwork.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=11100&hilit=flanders+red

About half way down there is a link to a blog that has some good info too...
