    Default Monster vintage EP bottle

    This is much bigger than I anticipated !!....I didn't realise this style of EP bottle came in a third size.
    I hope there's none bigger, because this is bloody big !!
    It's going to cost a bit more to fill it, probably two big bottles of Citrus Musk or Lime Sec

    Left to right, 10-3/4", 8-3/4", 6-3/4".

    And by Citrus Musk or Lime Sec you mean Clubman...

    Have a nice 6&3/4" EP bottle on the way now and I'm wondering how much it'll hold; can you estimate the volume of yours for me?

    Hi Entropy, you can see from the below pics where I filled up the 6-3/4" bottle.
    Emptying the contents into my measuring cup came to 250ml exactly.
    This means you could decant a small EP bottle of Lilac vegetal (6oz-177ml) into your glass bottle.
    Hope this helps

    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

    Nice too see one of them filled up with clubman again. Brought back to life and used. Fantastic
