ManSkirtBrew Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 (edited) For most of my cleaning I use an ultrasonic with L&R chemicals, but I still like to clean my balance and jewels separately. Like most of us I think, I started with this inexpensive glass "alcohol jar:" Which works okay, but it doesn't have a flat bottom, it's kind of big knocking around my desk, and the lid doesn't seal at all, which causes my expensive (but effective) hairspring dip to evaporate very quickly. So I briefly thought about upgrading to the Bergeon benzine cup until I saw the price tag. This guy was a little too fancy for me... I did a bunch of searching around for benzine jars, then I decided to look on the scientific glass website and found the magic search words: "low form weighing bottle." Even the made-in-USA Pyrex one is a third the price of a Bergeon. Just wanted to share for those like me who are happy to pay a premium for quality, but not happy to pay a premium for a brand name.

How do they come up with these prices.... and who is paying them?? Edited December 5, 2023 by Waggy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManSkirtBrew Posted December 12, 2023 Author Share Posted December 12, 2023 It's so cute! And exactly the size I was hoping for so I use less cleaning solution, and do less chasing parts around the bottom. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
