Recommend tincture bottles

[BabyFacedFinster]

I always have tincture made with shatter and everclear on hand for sleep dosages. I have been keeping my tinctures in dark glass bottles, but I'm bothered by the caps. All the bottles I've found, with or without droppers, have caps with a silicone or plastic liner underneath. I don't like that the alcohol comes in contact with material that can dissolve and leach into the tincture.

Any suggestions on a storage bottle that doesn't put your tincture in possible contact with shitty materials?

I went down this path, but when I realized I had some real LAB containers from my days of making EJuice, I started using them for 190 Ethanol tinctures. They aren’t cheap, and a bit hard to find. Costly as they are used in laboratories, usually sold in large quantities. Real PYREX, mine say made in Germany. Found various sizes on EBay. Link below is for the 25ml size. I use 1mL all glass syringes with stainless steel tips to dispense.

Corning PYREX #1395-25, 25mL Round Media Storage Bottles (Single) | eBay

These heavy duty 25mL PYREX® round bottles can be used for storage as well as mixing and sampling. They include a linerless, one-piece autoclavable orange polypropylene plug seal GL25 threaded cap. A pouring ring is not included on the 25mL size.

If you want to continue using the glass you have now, all I can suggest is to research the various cap liner materials to see which can SAFELY handle high alcohol content. The site link below might help you get started, good luck!
