I gots to get these washed and put into use!
@Eric , any update on these?Im in for a set of 4 please.Update for Glencairn Glassware
I got a quote a while back but wanted to finish the Tekus before setting up a pre-order.
A set of 4 of these glasses with the BOTL Alternative Logo Glassware (one sided) engraved would be $70+shipping.
Since there is a lower minimum on these (and assuming there is enough demand) sets of 2 for $40+shipping.
I hand wash all of my glassware used for beer and wine. Not only is there the etching issue, but dishwasher detergents and rinse aids will affect the head retention of your beer.I refuse to put any glassware in the dishwasher. No matter how new and advanced the machine or what quality the detergent, it will always etch the glass to some extent. People who do it all the time get used to it and I don't think they can tell the difference, but I can feel it. Anyone's house we go to, I can tell if they put their glass through the dishwasher. Because of this, I'm also a large proponent of hand-washing, painted or no.What makes you say that? Naturally, over a long period of time anything printed will fade but you seem to imply it will just fall off the first time.It will absolutely come off if you put them though the dish washer.There's no English on the box are these dishwasher safe or will I lose the design over time
FWIW, I have put the Beerfora glasses (printed with white by the same company) in the dishwasher countless times in the last 8 months with very little affect. YMMV.
No brother i didn't mean it in a bad way I never had good luck with putting my nice glassware in the dishwasher.
Just one more guys opinion.
Take it for what it is.
One thing I can tell you for sure, if you do hand-wash, never dry stem ware by twisting with one hand on the base and the other on the bowl. That's what feels the most natural, but even minimal force can snap a stem without warning. Always both hands on the base/stem, or both hands on the bowl. Proper care, and these beauties will last you a lifetime!
:thumbsup:
Thanks again, Eric!

Not trying to be a pain, but havent seen anything so figured I'd ask for an update.I project that we will start taking orders for these sometime next month.
The Tekus are done (for the foreseeable future) and the Glencairns got pushed back with the forum move/holidays.Has a new order started and I missed it?
Would love to get a couple of these for the new bar at home. Or any BOTL glassware for that matter.
Thanks brothers
They are posted about earlier in this thread.Are there détails about those Glencairns somewhere?
