Considerations & Trade-offs
- This is a replacement bottle and cap assembly, so it’s best suited to keeping a press set up with alternate shot sizes rather than serving as a standalone component.
- The product notes explicitly say not to store powder in this bottle, which limits its use to the intended application.
- If you keep multiple bottles on the bench, clear labeling is necessary to avoid mix-ups between shot sizes or other contents.
