A bstract It has been observed in the manufacture of bottles of the same size and shape from various colored glasses, such as emerald green and amber and the so‐called flint bottle glass, that higher machine speeds are usually obtained in the case of the colored glasses. A laboratory test has been devised to measure the cooling rates of several colored and colorless glasses throughout their respective working ranges, which gives results paralleling the speeds obtained in actual bottle manufacture.
