Was making breakfast this morning trying work out where this clicking noise kept coming from. I was slightly confused to see the milk lid moving on it's own.

if eggs start cooking on the counter, give Pete Venkman a call.

Gents is not that hard. The air in the container is colder than the air of the outside. When you take the bottle out it begins to warm up. When air gets hotter it expands, the trapped air seeks an exit and it ends up moving the lid.

I swear, so many people are posting stuff that is obviously NOT black magic here lately. It's like y'all never seen a poltergeist or something, smh.

Its the ghost of a 1950s milkman tryin to tighten up your milk so you don't spill it.

It's like an aluminum can compressing in cold areas and making a loud noise after being in a warm room for a bit because it's now expanding instead of compressing

This happened to me a few times as a kid. It always happened with the old style milk jugs with the thin press on lid.

It’s like that episode of love death, robots where the yogurt becomes sentient and take over. Like seriously, am I the only one thinking of that??

We have silicone tops for our glass milk bottles and they will pop off if you leave the milk out for a little while.

the jug has been squeezed and is under pressure to reform to its original shape

Sometimes this sub just reminds us how much work we still need to put into improving our schools. Adults out here failing to recognize the most basic fundamentals of science...

I once had a ketchup lid pop out from the top of the glass container. Their was a pop sound that came with the lid being launched to almost hit the ceiling……another incident while sleeping in a travel trailer, the cap to one the LED lights popped out, but before it popped out i could hear and feel a surge coming. Fuckn weird, i still cant figure out how its possible

It's just extra pressure being released as the milk heats up and the air expands

u/DubStu Feb 16 '23
Thermal expansion; we have glass milk bottles that come with foil tops, but we swap them for reusable silicone tops when the bottle is in use. Sometimes if we leave the bottle out of the fridge for a short time the top can fly off some distance with a loud pop.

I call bs. Squeezing the jug

u/Horse0nSauce Feb 04 '23
Ong I was not touching it, I'm assuming it was gas building up on the lid causing it to happen every 20 or so seconds. You can see on the first one my hand aint on the jug.

u/TortoiseHawk Feb 04 '23
Everyone saying he’s squeezing it clearly hasn’t experienced it. The jug has been out of the fridge and is warming up so the air inside is expanding ever so slightly until the cap lifts a bit and “burps” the extra pressure.
