    Re: Accordion bottles

    Why spend more for a brown bottle just cuz it folds?

    Dev in Tropicana OJ Bottles. The gallon size.
    If you keep em cool the chem lasts forever.
    I usually keep mine in the fridge.

    Replace lost volume in container with frozen strawberries and you're good to go.

    Also makes sangria down right interesting.

    A touch of stop bath adds a nice piquance to salads.

    What's really a drinking vessels and what's a chemical vessel? A wine bottle with the label removed is a glass bottle. Having said that I would never consider buying a open bottle of booze at an estate sale (yes I have seen them for sale). No idea what's really in there.

    I have a few accordion bottles kicking about but prefer using brown plastic chemical bottles. I would not ever use drinking containers to store chemistry in....probably wouldn't disguise a handgun as a hairdryer either.

    A hairdryer normally doesn't have it's markings removed and a label saying "Colt .45 - Not a hairdryer!" in big letters.

    When we purchased our farm I found a dozen 1 gallon glass jugs full of a clear...ish liquid and nicely stoppered with a cork. knowing that the prior owner had a still up until the 70s I thought it could be some nicely aged shine.
    Turned out to be gasoline

    .....and, no I didn't find out the hard way
