But the key point the op appears to have not noticed is that his crude paper cap has already lasted over 70 years. That is more than good enough.


We do not know that at all. What we do know is that *FINALLY* Eric has gotten around to dealing with it.

I was going to go back in time to replace that cap but my time machine
was serviced byb me after a few gins so instead I waited until I
bought the grinder in real time, used it for a couple years, posted a
question about it here and now I have a new cap coming.


Good stuff with orange juice and 2 or 3 banana liquors. I wonder what an 80 year-old gin bottle would fetch today.
