Those are beautiful. Are cobalt bottles easy to find in your area? I don't think I've ever seen one outside an antique shop.

It is very common to see blue bottles, but found few.

I've found some for sale online for brewers and wine makers. I might try this either spring break or summer.

You can also do it with bottles of other colors, or different bottles.

With the blue bottle is fine, but there are others.

Oh of course, but my beloved and I really love that cobalt color. Many of our dishes are cobalt. it really is striking when placed against that copper.

Blue is for poison so it's probably appropriate for home brewing :-)
