Bottles
Different shades of glass result naturally from iron
impurities in the natural ingredients from which it is made.
Airtight storage can be maintained by regularly cleaning the
rim of the jar or bottle, and the sealing ring, gasket, or stopper. When
preserving, always use new seals.
Corks (from tree bark) make a good airtight seal when wet. Bottles
that hold liquids, like wine, for example, should be stored on
their side to keep the cork constantly wet. Bottles with rubber corks don't
need to be stored on their side. All corked bottles that hold oils should
be stored upright after opening.
 Lightning
closures, or "bail tops", have a clasp or toggle, a neck tie-wire, a
lever wire, and a gasketed lid to make containers airtight.
This is
especially useful for carbonated beverage bottles and for canning and
storage jars.
♦ TIP:To prevent chipping on glass rims and lids with lightning
closures, hold down the lid with one hand while
unclasping or clasping the lightning closure (the clasp or toggle) with the
other hand.
