Sadly Parkinson Spencer no longer make pots, so they have to be bought in France or Germany.T hey are made to order, take 6 months to make by hand and deliver and need 3 months to  dry and each glass manufacturer has his own design and capacity. WE use 750 kg and fill them to 700 kg max,

This is really interesting - I've been after "the capacity of a pot" for some time now!
Do you know if your 700kg (in a 750kg pot - it's very sensible not to overfill, I reckon!) is a fairly normal sort of capacity?
It is specifically the size of one of the original pots used at Mdina I'd really like to know about, I can't imagine you'd know that, but might you have a rough idea? :)
