What type of bottles ....

Stay away from the thinner commercial bottles ( twist off caps) as they cannot hold the pressure well . Most LHB shops carry an assortment of different bottles that will work. The price ranges from 9.99 to 11.95 for a case of 24 long neck bottles.
I use those or sometimes some 22oz. bottles and even some TAD bottles.

I  just started using the grolsch bottles, but since I don't carry grolsch at my bar, they are harder to come by for free. I usually order one or two at the local pub and take the bottles home.

Go to places like Applebees and TGIF... some of them carry grolsch and serve a lot of it.  Most of them will be happy to give you the bottles for free.  Just make sure to check in periodically with them because they get mad (understandably) if the stuff piles up and you never show up.

That's a good idea....my brother knows of a place that sells Grolsch, so maybe I can get some for free.....
