I got a note stating they were transitioning to new bottles to stop leaking in transit. We'll have to see how that goes.

I got a few of the new bottles today; they're, ya know, bottles. I've never had any leaking problems with the old bottles. But the openings on the new ones are larger so my yorker spouts don't fit them anymore which is kind of a bummer.

I have had a few 4oz bottles that have leaked a little bit, but not so bad that I would complain

the 16 oz are really nice. Like a really nice quality coke bottle. Also a few of the gallon jugs I got in my last order were different and much nicer. Too bad they get transferred to glass now when they come in :P I am glad they're upgrading them, as they were a bit leaky sometimes and weren't airtight after opening half the time.

I really like the new bottles. The cap is like a sturdier soda bottle cap. I've always hated those stupid peel off foil seals.

Having had both bottles for a while now- the new bottles have a harder plastic that flexes less and the bottle tops are a better seal. Good to see after receiving a few 4oz and 16oz leaky bottles in the past. Only time will tell if they are hard enough to chip and crack instead when dropped.

The QC in factories that produce PET bottles involved a "drop test" where an operator fills the bottle with water and drops it from a 2 meter height to make sure they don't break. These should be fine wherever you store them.

Fuck yes- I can move those to the top shelf and free some space. Need more room for more flavors!

It's a pretty good body for recipe's when used correctly.

Worked out a percentage for a base yet? I picked up a bottle but I haven't had a chance to play with it yet. Also how does it stack up to cappelas doughnut flavors?

I found cappelas glazed donut to have this weird wax taste

by DrMclovensabout 10 years agoThe Mad Alchemist

I usually use it anywhere from 4-8% depending on the recipe.

They look a lot better than the past TFA bottling i got , usually if something changes it tends to be worse , this is refreshing.

TFA seems to be a pretty upright good quality company from everything i have seen with them and dealt with.

Yeah , i like them.

I wonder if these new bottles TFA are using extends the shelf life of their flavors?

Two orders in a row have had a mix of both now. Gonna have to modify my organizer box now. But I do like the new ones much better. Not as easy to tip. And I domino everything when I tip shit.
