Can plastic piece on stopper be removed and still seal OK? I want to use it for lemon juice in fridge but don't want plastic to contaminate the juice.

I would imagine it can be removed but I would not worry about it. I have a bottle of lemon juice in my refrigerator now that was sold in a plastic bottle. I use it mainly for whisky and a lot of small containers of whisky are sold in plastic bottles now. I think the plastic used now is more stable and less likely to deteriorate and contaminate the product you are storing in it.

I wish I could help you but I can't. I purchased the decanters for gifts so I don't know whether or not the plastic stopper can be removed or not. Sorry

Removing the stopper will keep it from sealing completely, so be careful that it is in a place that it will not tilt or be knocked over.

First I don't know how or why the plastic would contaminate the lemon juice. However the stopper can not be removed and still be able to seal. You can remove the plastic but then the lid would be flat on the bottom and would not seal at all

Yes, I think the "stopper" type lid has a bit of plastic inside to help give it a tight seal.

The plastic cup would have to be one of the stronger ones that are sold everywhere now. I place the lid in the palm of my hand, plop it on the cup & walk my fingers around the edges to make sure it is sealed. Hope that helps with your question.

Store in clean glass jar, not plastic. Use clear wrap over top not metal. Some plastics can absorb bacteria or the bp in the plastic.

Yes, the clear plastic goes inside the bottle. There shouldn't be any leaks

Sometimes the seal can be a bit loose. Once it came off and stuck to the plastic lid. Have you looked inside to check?

No it won't - that's the best thing about it. As far as I know, the seal is not technically plastic anyhow, but silicone. But you'd be safe.

If you're making large quantities can't see why not as the container has an excellent seal. When we made starter we generally used 1 quart canning jars with caps on in the fridge as we made a small batch. Don't know anything about any reaction to the plastic as stated in a previous reply but I would follow up on that or the venting comment. One thing for sure, hope you have a large fridge as it takes up a large space.

If you store your juices in bottles, the FoodSaver Bottle Stoppers would be perfect to help keep them fresher for longer. The FoodSaver Bottle Stoppers replace corks and caps so you can vacuum seal wine, oils, juices or infusions to keep them fresh with your FoodSaver vacuum sealing system.

yes. when you take the lid off, make sure its in the "open" position (with the red showing on the top) and from there the sealer twists off pretty easily. run it through water and you're good. Personally I just undo the lid and throw it in the dishwasher, that does the trick when i'm lazy.

The stopper is plastic. I do not fill my bottle, I use it strictly for decoration. BPA-free, this I do not know.

This is the batch one so I have to put the stopper in place. It is a safety mechanism. You can get one that uses a switch too if you prefer.

The seal is very tight on these bottles and the glass is thick. I currently have one in the fridge on its side with liquid in it, no leakage. And have traveled with two in a bag at one time...no spillage. A way better vessel than plastic alternatives for breast milk. I say go for it

Absolutely not!! Actually, there is no seal at all. Just a plastic lid that very lightly clicks onto the container. Anything kept in it over long periods of time would definitely spoil. Horrible product! Waste of money!

I have used Orange and lemon oil in this and haven't seen any problems, but I would be careful using Cinnamon or cloves in anything plastic.

You might get it off but WILL damage the fridge. That's what happened when I started removing mine so just left it.

Absolutely! Just give a light push on flower and it creates the seal. It even works on soda cans if you remove the tab first so you still have a bit of fizz the next day. In frig it can't be touching anything else or it knocks the seal loose. I have other sizes too and love them all, but use these drink roppers almost daily.
