What is entered here is not always clear. It can be the elements of the productpackage and the make of these elements. If both are entered, it should be clear which element goed with which make. Look also at the bottle itself. In order to reduce the confusion we can do:
+
This field is used to specify information about the package. This field is a keyword based field. This implies that as soon as you press enter or comma, a keyword is created. Keywords are very useful for searchig. If you click on a keyword in a product description, you will see all products that contain that keyword.
* Bottle:green glass / Bottle:brown glass / Bottle:transparant glass. and sometimes even more detailed Bottle:brown glass:GL 72 {{product|5410228158424}};

=== Beer packaging basics ===
* Capsule:metal;

One can specify all elements used all elements used to contain the product, or set of products. For beers this is fairly straightforward:
* Box:paper
+
* Bottle in various sizes (25cl, 33cl, 75cl, etc.);
 +
* Can in varous sizes;
 +
* Kegs;
 +
In addition one can specify what materials the packaging is made of. Thus for beer:
 +
* Métal, usually aluminium for the can and the crown caps;
 +
* Glass in various colours;
 +
=== Beer packaging advanced ===
 +
It is possible to add more detail to the specification of the packaging, allowing for more detailed searches. The Open Street Map style for detailed keywords can be used here:
 +
* Bottle:glass - to specify that the bottle is made of glass;
 +
* Bottle:glass:brown - to specify that the bottle is made of brown glass (other colours are green and transparant).  
 +
* Bottle:glass:GL 71 for clear glass. On some bottles the colour is also printed as GL 71, GL 72 ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recycling_codes Wikipedia]);
 +
* Crown cork:métal - to specify that the crown cork is made of métal ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_cork Wikipédia]);
 +
* Crown cork:métal=26mm - to specify the size of the crown cork. 26mm is found on 25cl, 33cl and 50cl bottles. 29mm crown corks are found on 37,5cl and 75cl bottles;
 +
* Bottle:swing top - to indicated bottles with a swing top. These bottles can be closed again;
 +
* Crown cork:twist off - to indicate the bottles can be opened by hand. Just turn the cork;
