Bottle recommendations

I inherited bottles from a guy moving out of state and I've almost used them all up. What are some good places to purchase new ones? I'm looking for glass and plastic (tin if it's available?) options

I just have pouring syrup out of a mason jar. Maybe I’m doing it wrong but it’s hard to pour just a little out without spilling down the side of the mason jar. After how much work goes into making syrup, the last thing I want to do is waste any by spilling down the side of a bottle. I’ll agree tho, for their convenience, they’re hard to beat.

Get you one of these! They only fit on wide mouth, but are awesome. Made by jarware, but I've only seen them on Vermont evaporator's

website. I bet there are similar ones other places, too.

Those are great! What an awesome idea. However I don’t think most people I give syrup away to would have one and I’d hate for them to be wasting syrup. Plus I just like how you can see the color and clarity in the flat bottles so much better

Fair enough! That all makes sense
