I was trying to bottle my first lager in as many green bottles as I could collect, for looks only, and I had a bunch of german beer bottles. The lip on these was thinner than a normal bottle and my capper wouldn't cap these. Sort of like a Bass Ale bottle but I've never had a problem capping those.

I have the two handed red capper you get with most kits.
Is there another capper that can put a crown on these tricky bottles?

Get a bench capper. Older "antique" ones are available on Ebay for $5-$25.
