Re: [APD] Vortex XL

["S. Hieber" <shieber at yahoo_com>]

Nice to know the options. Vortex (Innerspace Space) charges
$10+ for a new jar. 

I hadn't looked at my XL in a while. They still come with
glass jars. It's the D1 model that was switched to a
plastic jar some years ago.

Staying with glass for the XL allows for the
in-the-jar-neck seal via o-ring and the use of the
thumbscrews for fastenign the pump assembly to the jar. A
plastic jar woul d just collapse or tear if the thumbscrews
were the least bit overtightened.

Do the glass condiment jars have a size coding on them?
