We ALL trust Kurt! Did he know you were gonna freeze 'em?

The dropper rubber bulb can deteriorate or possibly crack after freezing. The plastic inner cone caps are the more secure/stable option.

Send Kurt a PM to verify my suggestions. If he says otherwise, PLEASE let me know!

Iffy, the bottles listed here are with eurodropper inserts, and regular cap. They are not the rubber bulb dropper cap. These are the ones I use, and have for years with excellent results.

Here is the amber 30 mL bottle:

Amber Euro Glass Bottle 30 ml w/ Dropper Cap (Blk)

It is called a dropper cap I think because it is able to fit the mouth while the eurodropper insert is in place. The cone capped bottles are fine for freezer too, but then you don't get the benefits of the eurodropper insert (no spill, syringe access, and if you want you can take them out). The combo of the cap and the insert will create a gasket seal like the cone caps will. In fact I think the euro insert is the same polyethylene that the cone is.

I have also found these euro inserts and their caps fit TFA 15 mL bottles. Good for often-used flavors to keep them from spilling if you knock it over...and I have before. I wish I could just buy the euro inserts and their caps, so I can spectum-up all of my TFA bottles.

BTW, thanks for the vote of confidence! :) I do make mistakes, however, and so I'm glad Keithhe contacted me to doubt check.

The caps are all the same for the bottle sizes I got @ 100 / 30 and 10 ML, so suspect they all are interchangeable. The fit and seal very well.

Also, the syringes I got (glass and SS) are spectacular. These are beyond anything I imagined and I will be getting a few more. They are so finely machined that the plunger is just glass, no rubber, and slide like butter. Perfect fit and seal. For doing incremental tiny amounts it is very easy with these. With the "Euro caps" being discussed above, the syringe goes right into the tiny access hole so does not need to be removed.

As far as all the flavors......OK, when you see it on paper it seems like a lot, but when it is all here and broken out by bottle it is overwhelming. Way too much. Anyone want to have a mixing party??

Depending on the syringes (and glass should be in general better about this than plastic) you may wish to cover the graduation lines and the numbers with transparent packing tape. PG and VG can dissolve "silkscreen" markings. I use only plastic syringes, they work fine, but some hold their numbers and lines better than others.

really glad you see what I mean about the euro inserts! For me they are the perfect addition to any dispensing bottle. Yes, the inserts and caps fit on any of that bottle line from Specialty bottles, but they may not fit for other makes of bottles. I first learned about them because for a while TW was selling 36-54 mg DIY base in glass bottles with them. Decadent Vapors did too. I also had some tiny glass bottles with them from a local herb store. They are supposed to allow very slow dropper action when the bottle is inverted, but I saw right away that they could be used for septa, so I found them on SpecialtyBottle and ordered a bunch.
