I like to reuse my old bottles and lids when they are empty or if I buy some sauce that I don't like. I thoroughly clean them inside and out with hot water and dish soap+ clorox and rinse well. Inside most of the plastic lids there is a round piece of waxy paper that seals against the glass when tightened. Can you leave that paper in and clean it with the rest of the bottle or should you discard it and find a place to buy new paper discs?
I ordered a dozen 5 ounce glass bottles from Amazon last night. They come with removable splasher discs. I like the idea of being able to dab my hot sauce a little spritz at a time however I don't know if I want it that watery. Has anyone experimented on how thick hot sauce can be and still pass through the small openings? It seems to me that if you can see any seasonings/spices whatsoever floating in your sauce that it would have issues clogging. Maybe the splasher bottles are designed more for tabasco style sauces and not "hot" sauces in general?
