    <p>Jokes aside, the screw-on top has merit. <br>
    </p>
    <p>is it possible that there is a significant amount of air bubbles
      produced/trapped/expanding within the mixture, caused by the hot
      water and, in turn, causing the system to act like a hot-air
      balloon, therefore, be lighter?</p>
    <ul>
      <li>The screw-on top will prevent hot-air system expansion and
        prevent the weight loss<br>
      </li>
      <li>Also, what happen to the system weight, if you let it return
        to ambient temperature?</li>
