Fill-level variations on new bottles?

[boone]

There may be special industry terms, but surely you can understand that, when the bottle is moved by hand only all the way from empty to filled to capped to labeled to dipped to tagged to bagged to boxed, some laymen like me might consider this to be "by hand". It's certainly more "by hand" than an automated bottling line. I would still consider a piece of furniture to be made by hand even if the carpenter used a level and a ruler.

I did not notice if there was a scale involved. That's a statement of fact regarding my observation. I made no claim about whether or not there was one, just whether or not I saw it.

That is the line on which van winkle bourbons are bottled.

I think that pretty much covers what I wrote.

Yeah, I know it "covers" what you wrote.

Ah, the good old days ...

For old-timers only:

• Good Lord! Give BobbyC some!
• Julian will correct me if I'm wrong, but I think...
• Cat tails??? There are no cat tails in bourbon!
• Personally I've always thought S-W bourbon was overrated.
• _Mark_ my words, they won't be missed here.
• Sure you have two jobs and a family, but we know you'll pass all the courses you need for certification.

I don't know what you're implying by putting "covers" in quotes.

He asked about bottling van winkle bourbons. I replied that I had been there, described what I had seen, and gave a link to the Web cam. It had nothing to do with you, your message, your expertise, or the bottling line at Heaven Hill.
