I am confused about how you guys transfer the gold from the bottle to the vial. Right now my best solution is to use a small flask funnel but I am worried that if my hands slip I will have to mine the kitchen floor for my gold..... Solutions below please....

I build my own Cuz yours isn't good enough

That's it - maybe practice 1st time over a large bowl. (standard snuffer bottles have a built-in funnel, just remove the straw)
Also, I drilled holes to hold different sized vials in a piece of two-by-four for confidence in dry transfers.

Get everything spinning (whirlpool like) before you turn it upside down to dump it, and then keep it spinning (don't go crazy) once you've got it in the gold collection bottle you're dumping it into, and any fine gold will usually get spun out that's hung up on the sides or elsewhere.

Always, always do it over a gold pan or large bowl (like Fullpan says). All kinds of crazy things can and will happen from time to time, and more than once I've been very happy I was pouring my gold into bottles over a gold pan.

Of course, if all you do it pan out nuggets and pickers, then you won't need to worry about spinning the sucker/sniffer/snifter/snuffer bottles (man, there's a lot of names for the exact same thing, isn't there), as those chunky pieces will usually slide right out with the gravity's assistance only.

All the best,

Nothin' quite as fun as chasin' sassy gold!

Do everything underwater... in a large mixing bowl or such. Then, everything is smooth and transfers nicely. After inverting the snifter bottle, give it a tap or two to make sure all drops to the vial. TTC

I'm not a GYNECOLOGIST (but I'll take a look).

For sure, that's another great way to do it! Nicely said Terry.

I had a problem transferring from a snuffer bottle awhile back. I was using my garret gold guzzler and my issue was that part of the lid was made lower than the straw hole, so when I turn the bottle upside down the gold stays in the bottle and can't get out through the straw! I ended up going to the local craft store and purchased some small paint transfer squeeze bottles, they were about $2 for a dozen of them, and you can cut the plastic tip of the straw to whatever size you want. Works great!

I wash the snuffer bottle parts in a fullish pan of clean water and then transfer the gold from the pan to the bottle with a suction pipette (sometimes called suction tweezers). Much better control that way

...it is too about havin' the gold!
