I just wanted to share an alternative solution I came up with for dry hopping after seeing the crazy prices they are being sold for... others might have thought of this already but i'd figure I'd share anyway for those who havent.
I bought a bazooka tube like this,

and then used a 1/2" stainless cap like this,

To cap it once filled with hops or orange peels , vanilla beans or other fermentation or keg additives...
Total cost is about $10 which is great because I have a lot of kegs and fermenters to fill
Works well for a lot less than $25-50 that they usually sell for. They do fit fine in better bottles too and possibly glass carboys.
