Economical "bean cellars"...

I ordered these a couple of weeks ago. They just arrived and look pretty decent. They are 50ml, hold 18-19g depending on bean size and cost about $1.35 each including shipping. And it looks like they'll make an excellent guitar slide.
I'm hoping to avoid pre-weighing every shot by filling these en masse by grouping them together inside a larger tray.
They're also available in 40 and 60ml sizes:

Duane Allman used a coricidin bottle. Wonder how many beans they would hold.Almico wrote:And it looks like they'll make an excellent guitar slide.

I got some spice jars from Amazon as well as a little funnel. Moves the morning along a little faster.

Those look pretty nice and the price is reasonable.Almico wrote:I ordered these a couple of weeks ago. They just arrived and look pretty decent. They are 50ml, hold 18-19g depending on bean size and cost about $1.35 each including shipping. And it looks like they'll make an excellent guitar slide.

Are you planning to freeze them as well, and if so, how well do they seal?

I wasn't planning on freezing them. I think I'm going to just keep them in a drawer under my machine.
I'm not sure what kind of seal they have. I'll look later. I would rather them not seal completely and gas off naturally.

I'm interested in hearing about the seals too.

Interesting, I use ball jars for freezing. Kinda liking the notion of using these for freezing single doses.
