I just noticed my glass pouring bottle are 25.8 oz. I have been mixing my concentrates in them as if they were a quart. How do you modify your recipe for the glass bottles?

It would depend on the ratio of concentrate to sugar/water. For example 4oz per gallon would break down to 1 oz per quart. 1 oz is roughly 29.5 ml... I suck at math so honestly I would just round up. 1ml of concentrate per oz of water so in your case, roughly 26ml of concentrate (If you are using a product at a 4oz to 1 gallon ratio).

Sugar is a whole nother story...lol

Have you thought about mixing in a larger quantity (like a gallon) and refilling your glass bottles as needed?

I have a Master's Degree in Economics and a PhD in Finance so for me the math is easy. However the solution is even easier -- switch to quart bottles.
