Not really. Hollow bottom wine bottles are used for sparkling wines, of which the best known is Champagne. Sparkling wines are made by allowing a final fermentation right inside the bottle, after it has been sealed. This produces a small amount of yeast inside the bottle; this little bit of yeast is called the lees. When the wine has finished fermenting the lees settle slowly to the bottom. The special shape of the bottom of the bottle helps the lees to form a hard sediment, which will stay firmly on the bottom even when the bottle is opened. Wines that are not sparkling are left to mature in a wooden barrel, and the lees stick tightly to its sides. When the barrel is finally tapped and bottles are filled from it, no lees get in, so there is no need for a special bottle. The price of sparkling wines may be slightly higher than still wines, but the shape of the bottle is just an incidental.

Why is there an indentation in bottom of wine bottles?

The hollow bottom has nothing to do with easier pouring but only with glass STRENGTH. Glass is weak in bending (not many 12ins rulers about!) but strong in tension and compression. The "cone" at the base is under compression form the pressure inside the bottle and this puts the end of the bottle (the tube part) into tension. If the base was flat, instead of cone shaped , it would 'bend' from the pressure and thus break.

Where does the milk go in a toy baby bottle?

The "milk" or "juice" goes into the top, or nipple, of the bottle. There is a hollow cylinder in the bottle so that when you see the liquid it is only filling the small space between the outside of the bottle and the empty, hollow cylinder inside it. All the liquid can fit into the nipple and seem to disappear.

What are capacity and volume?

Capacity is the space inside something (that is hollow). Volume is the space something occupies. The capacity of a bottle is the amount of space inside the bottle, whereas the volume of the bottle is the space that the bottle occupies. The difference between the two is the volume of the material from which the bottle is made.
