I couldn’t tell you the reason, however coffee from glass bottles simply tastes better than coffee from plastic bottles.
For years my friends and family members would tease me when I’d mention my preference for glass bottle drinks.
I’ve said the precise same thing about beer and wine on so many occasions. Even though I couldn’t exactly explain my reasoning even slightly, I was totally convinced of this fact for many years. When I started reading about plastics leaching chemicals into drinks—often simply from minimal heat exposure while in storage—I felt as though I had learned the scientific explanation for my glass bottle preference. In particular, several older plastic bottles were using a chemical byproduct called BPA. A bunch of studies found that BPA was both toxic in long term exposure and easily leaches into a plastic bottle’s contents if even just a small bit of heat or UV light is exposed to the bottle. This is primarily the reason why my number one cannabis dispensary in my hometown had to stop using plastic jars for their products as soon as the supplier was able to afford the change. They have told myself and others that the other sizable reason is that the glass jars with the silicone rings at the top are much better for how fresh they keep your marijuana flower. Between not fretting about chemicals leaching into your weed, nor having your stash go dry while in closed storage, I guess I will consistently choose a glass bottle for my cannabis if I’m given the actual choice. I can easily thank all of the glass bottled coffee and beer that got me to this conclusion.
