How does this do in making a bottle without clumps?

It dispenses very hot water first to kill any bacteria that might be in the formula. At that point, you can and shake then finish with the rest of the water. It works well but you have to shake it, as with any other bottle, to avoid the clumping. We love it. Sorry for delay in response

Very well although it only dispenses the water and you still shake the bottle. On another note, we have had five or six of them because they are great and convenient but keep breaking

It does a really good job. We use regular Enfamil and I've never noticed any clumping in his bottles.

I shake the bottle and then add the needed amount of concentrate into an empty gallon size water bottle. Then I add a little water to it using a hose set on a jet (or power wash or whatever setting you have to produce a powerful spray of water). This breaks up the clumps very easily. Pour it into the pump sprayer, add remaining water (amount per instructions), and shake it. And periodically shake it while spraying.

Yup. Though I never had the whole bottle put together when I used those bottles with it. Just the bottle with formula/water. Then we switched to Avent bc the Brown bottles became a pain to clean (side note)

I found its not very easy, but doable. I vigorously shake the container first (doesn't do much to rid it of the clumps) but I think it distributes the ingredients in the container if needed. Then I measure out the amount to go in water. Since I use a pump sprayer its fairly easy to VIGOROUSLY SHAKE the pump sprayer after adding the 3&1 to the measured out water. Then I pump it to pressure and spray one plant. While moving to the next plant I shake the sprayer again. Since its never clogged the nozzle I think that pretty much works. One thing - after spraying it really does create a not-too-pleasant odor. But the stuff does work on powdery mildew which is the main problem I use it for. I found its not very easy, but doable.

This bottle us very large, about twice as large as the last soda container I used. I noticed it right off by the weight if the bottle when empty. But I haven't noticed it only fizzing only half the bottle. I do try to use it within 2 days as the fizz tends to weaken after sitting around more than that. If I have it laying around longer than 2 days, I actually push the nozzle to dump the water as I want to keep it fresh and clean as possible. I actually like the smaller container as not as heavy and doesn't take as much water. But it tajes the same charger whether either container. When I refill a new batch, I usually shake it like 20-30 times and use realky cold water which makes it fizz better. This bottle us very large, about twice as large as the last soda container I used.

It doesn't dissolve easily and it does require some stirring. I use it at the office, so it doesn't bother me at all.

Yes, it does, and when it gets really dirty, I just put a tiny bit of Clorox in a bucket and soak the base in it. The same goes for the glass bottle. Very easy.

Warmer water does help with clumping, but otherwise I've never had an issue. I tend to pull up and down on the mixer about 50-60 times though and with some good force. I never have any left over clumps. Your mileage may vary with force applied and number of pull up/downs.

Works great, regular clumping litter will give you problems but this stuff is great. It does not clump.

Absolutely. May need a little stirring but no clumping at all. Some will collect at the bottom of a glass on the sides but a swirl will take care of that. Great with a small amount of real juice.

Are you shaking the bottle beforehand? Other than that, sounds normal to me. It has a very runny consistency.

I've never had a problem with it mixing in with a bottle, that's the only way i've ever used it! It's such a small amount, and it mixes just fine when you shake the bottle

Just simply clean it well and paint stuff on. It looks like milk and looks like it does nothing, but let it dry and it disturbs the surface just enough to make it work great. When i did it, I poured some out of bottle and into tub and used the little roller to spread it around. Ended up using 1/2 the bottle. It was super simple. It took me longer to type this explanation than it did to do the tub... :)

I actually cut the bottle in half and use a knife or spatula to remove the remaining liquid. This may sound crazy or odd, but there is always a bunch left in the bottle. I do this for tubes, too.

There is an opening at the tip of the bottle. You squeeze gently to create a fine covering not any clumps, covering the area you want to treat.

Ah... Without a pointed spout, one will always get dribbles, methinks. But I have not found the bottle to be messy. Nothing that a quick swipe with a paper towel won't fix. You could always pour it into your favorite bottle with a pour spout after making the dressing. That way, you only need one of these bottles for mixing the dressing. Hey---that's a great idea!

Since there is no bottle, just the spout it is as simple as it gets. I just toss it in the dishwasher when needed, but the pour is so clean that I don't have to do that too often. The pour is so nice the outside of the bottle stays clean and the spout stays clean. This is better than any "oil" bottle I have ever seen.
