Having trouble with big bottles

[Xanax]

Well I have an all time favorite juice that only comes in 30ml bottles and I drip only, so it's a problem for me. I have a hard time handling the bottle right and keeping it steady. What can I do about this? Can I wash out some of my old bottles and use those or is it not good to put steril juice in a bottle that's been washed out with TAP water?

Also are there any places like walmart, kmart, etc that sell dropper bottles? I don't want to order any online, that is not an option right now.

If I can't get any locally would someone be willing to tell me how I can safely wash out a used bottle? I know that juices with VG in them have a tendency to develope bacteria and spoil. Thanks a bunch.

I wash out and re-use my bottles and have never had a problem. I just rinse them out with tap water and let them dry. My favorite is an empty Visine bottle. I like this bottle because it's flat and sits well in my pocket, so that's what I take with me to work.

If you want to sterilize your bottles all you need is steam or you can boil them (only glass). Im not sure if the plastic will deform but im sure it will get hot and plyable. I have a steam setting on my dishwasher.I just throw em in there to get the flavors out and its easy.You can also use alcohol to sterilize,but make sure you wash it out with sum distilled water so you dont get minerals left behind from tap water.

But just so you know...your juice is not sterile anymore once you start to use it(if it ever was sterile).All in all i wouldnt be to worried about anything growing in your juice.Just put the cap back on after you use it.

The e-liquid plastic dropper bottles work great for carry however getting the liquid in is easier said than done w/ a Halo glass
dropper. Did get it done & added a drop of Creme de Menthe.
I did a quick search on bottles here & it seems order is the word. I only
needed 1 for now so I had a woman do a search in the kitchen &
we came up with a pack of 4 small plastic 1/4 oz. bottles with removable drip tips. I asked which 3 colorings were her favorites & dumped the other one so now there is a mixing carry bottle.
Adams food coloring pack of 4 plastic 1/4 oz. (over 7 ml, a good size for carry),
Tested with e-liquid & they do not spill w/ drip top in place.
The removable drip tip & the harder plastic allows easy cleaning.

Hey Xanax

I don't think that the bottles were ever sterile- just clean. I wash mine all the time and reuse. I mix hot water with lime juice (ratio of 3 to 1) and soak carts, attys, bottles and bottle parts for 4 hours to overnight. Then rinse in hot water. Place on clean paper towel to dry. The lime juice helps neutralize mint or cinnamon flavors from our favorite California vendor. Been doing this for 3 months with no problem.

Heck I reuse my bottles all the time. Its real handy to take a 30ml bottle of juice pour some into a 5ml bottle. Fits nicely in my purse. Just make sure you screw the top on securely. I didn't once and oh what a mess

I do the same (but pocket, not purse, for me). I have thought about super-gluing the bottoms of two 5ml bottles together for carrying two different strengths around. Anybody done that?
