Anyone ever tried?

I want to find a good, smaller container for my home brewed probiotic and I would rather recycle if possible.

Use latex exterior paint on the outside. Hardware stores like Home Depot and Lowes sell goof blends cheap if you don't mind what color you get.

I stumbled on this company and signed up for email, then referred a friend and then got a 250ml jar for $10 shipped.

Should do the trick. Pretty cool company

No, this is instead of the recycled bottles. They claim 100% light blockage

Sorry for not being clear

Oh! I thought you bought a 250ml jar of something or other - you meant you bought the jar!
