Does anyone have a resource for bottling machines, new or used?

Bottling machines are pretty expensive for just a 100 bottles, I would pour those by hand.
Just my opinion

We have a used one that we no longer use. It is perfect for runs of 50+. It is an accuramatic MK7, adelphi.

We are considering it. It is a similar type to the one that SKS has but it was purchased from England about 8 years ago. We haven't used it for about a year and a half so if you are interested then we will look into making sure everything works properly.

Not sure this is the same thing, Joan, but I bought a new bottle/jar filling machine from SKS for about the same price as it would have cost to rent one. It is small, works well on all sorts of viscosities and has allowed me to up my production levels in less time.

Thank you Sharon, I appreciate you sharing the information and will check it out. I looked at your La Isha line. Your products look beautiful, your labels and containers are highly attractive.

We haven't made a decision yet on whether we will sell it or not. Can we let you know later in the month?
