bottle syles for maple syrup

[maplefarmer]

I would like to bottle some maple syrup in a few decorative wine type bottles, but they all take corks. Is it possible to bottle syrup with a cork being the 185 deg. temp. needed to hot pack it ?

Few reasons you shouldn't do that. New bottles are cheap and clean(no residue). Second. Corks will not seal.

I would have to agree with jmayerl there are plenty of new glass bottles with screw on caps to choose from a variety of suppliers.

MF, I understand your desire but you will be very frustrated with the cork. The problem will be getting the cork out of the bottle. The vacuum that syrup creates will wedge that cork so deep in the bottle it will come out in pieces and the rest will have to be pushed into the bottle.

Only had one experience with this as a kid and it was an hour to get the bottle opened.

There are loads of syrup bottle choice from numerous sources that you will be able to find one that will trip your trigger.
