What are you canning now?

Love your label! What a nice presentation with your bottle.

Those looking for bottles - try here:

http://www.fillmorecontainer.com - I've gotten canning jars from them. Think they have nice bottle selection as well. I have to run out and can't shop for them at the moment. But I thought one of you might like to have the link to shop now.

I did another canner load of sliced dill pickles. The stacker kinds (sliced length -wise) sold in stores. And one jar blew the bottom out.

I hate that when it happens. I seem to have a bit of troubles with seals more than usual too.

Yikes!
I don't need a case, though. I guess I should check into it and see exactly what I need and what the cost is. Wish there were another person in East TN I could split a case with though!
I really do like the idea of the plastic doodads in the opening...

Edited to add:
That's $2.10 per bottle (after s&h) plus the cost of the vodka & vanilla beans.
The case weighs 15 pounds which is why the shipping is higher. Decisions decisions....

I found a site that has some very inexpensive amber bottle here it is
www.specialtybottle.com Most of the mones I looked at were less than 1.00 each.

Yeah but shipping is still $22 for a case. Only advantage is not having to buy the whole case...

But if I bought 24 of the bottle I like best, it still comes to $2.10 per bottle. So if I'm going to consider this, I'd rather have the amber bottle with the plastic doo dad in it.

Guess I will just have to make a trio of extracts for the people on my list

Let me know how many you might need and I'm sure I'll have some extra we'll work something out. I almost ordered two cases but couldn't afford the $50+ in shipping for two cases.

Good idea - that would work for our homemade vinegar. Husband doesn't need too many excuses to enjoy a cold beer on a hot day!

I have posted this before, but this is what I use to give my vanilla for gifts. I buy the french fizzy lemonades at Krogers or even Marshalls carries them. They are 3.99 but I get the benefit of drinking the juice which we all enjoy then reuse the bottle. Perfect for vanilla's, vinegars, etc.

My hubby doesn't drink and I've never cooked with beer.

Next time I go to Knoxville and the gourmet markets I'll look and see what bottles they have that are attractive. I like the idea of a brown bottle so that any sediment that occurs won't look 'ugly' to my recipients.

I have really picky family members, and if they don't like the look of the stuff floating in the bottle I know they will throw it away.
