Guest guest Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 ha! a funnel only seems obvious if i had one. and then there's the issue of pouring from a jar with no pour spout....that's a spill waiting to happen. thanks, though! > > A bit obvious but...

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 I suggest using a Turkey Baster. A funnel can get to be too messy in going from 1 quart to those tiny 2-oz bottles. Get a transparent turkey baster for best results. PS) I'm new here, from Marks Daily Apple, where I moderate an iodine thread. Hello, JDW. Grizz > > hello! > > i've ordered the ingredients to make my own lugol's and 16 2 oz bottles to transfer it to once the crystals have dissolved. my question is this: what is the best way to transfer the lugol's from my quart jar to the 2 oz bottle without spilling and without taking a loong time by the dropper full into each bottle? thanks! anja > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 I found an easy way and I already have the item. I keep the large jar covered with a paper bag in a dark cupboard so I have to transfer new Lugols every 3 weeks or so. I just use a pyrex glass measuring cup. It has a little pouring spout that fits perfectly inside my 1 and 2 oz glass bottle moths. I always pour over the sink and I have the bottle eye level so I can see when it's full. I have spilled a couple of drops once but a little powdered vit C made it go away.

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 I have a tiny wee funnel that fits right into the dropper bottles and I fill them that way. I don’t even remember where I got it. Oh yes I do, it was bought many years ago, to fill a perfume (purse-size) spray bottle from a larger one. Comes in very handy. Maybe a DOLLAR STORE.

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 Yes, you'd want glass ideally, or can use plastic if that's all you have, but don't use a metal one because the Lugol's reacts with metal and you don't want to add that into your mix. Grizz-- Nice to have you with us. I checked out your forum, just plopped into the middle of it but have to run so couldn't spend much time. People were discussing the patch test. If you've read our Guide to Supplementing that you received when you joined, you know by now that the patch test is not a reliable indicator of one's iodine status. -- moderator On 22 Feb 2012 at 10:54, catdeveer wrote: > perfect! thank you! > > > >> > >> hello! > >> > >> i've ordered the ingredients to make > my own lugol's and 16 2 oz bottles to transfer it to once the crystals > have dissolved. my question is this: what is the best way to transfer > the lugol's from my quart jar to the 2 oz bottle without spilling and > without taking a loong time by the dropper full into each bottle? > thanks! anja > >> > > > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
