This bottle holds a number of potions each floating in a layer atop one another.
Each beaker holds 1d4+1 potions determined at random. When determining the potion types, record the results in the sequence they were rolled. Duplicates and baneful types are possible. The possessor must use the standard methods for identifying the potions types (tasting, etc.).
If the potion type is one with multiple doses, the potion in the beaker will have a maximum of 1d4+1 doses.
Each potion exists in a separate layer in the beaker and must be used or discarded to access the next potion. The first potion is always the potion at the bottom of the beaker with the successive ones layer atop that. Thus, the last potion rolled will be the uppermost one and first to be accessed. This is also an important consideration when attempting to identify the liquids.
For potions with more than one dose, all doses must be used or discarded before the next potion can be accessed.
Potions may be quaffed directly from the beaker as per drinking a potion. If poured into a separate container, the liquid will be mundane—colored water only (and wasted/discarded).
Potions in the beaker will refill over time. The refill rate depends on the number of potions contained in the beaker. Potions refill in the order they were originally found.
If the beaker only holds 1 or 2 potions, these will refill each day at midnight but the beaker will only refill up to 3 times each week (resetting at midnight on the first day of the campaign calendar week). Even the use of one potion counts as a daily refill.
If the beaker holds 3 potions, these will refill each day at midnight but the beaker will only refill up to 2 times each week (resetting at midnight on the first day of the campaign calendar week). Even the use of one potion counts as a daily refill.
If the beaker holds 4 or 5 potions, these will refill each day at midnight but the beaker will only refill once each week (resetting at midnight on the first day of the campaign calendar week). Even the use of one potion counts as a daily refill.
Once opened and used, the beaker will lose one potion (and all doses) per campaign calendar month at midnight during the first day of the month. The potion lost is determined randomly. The weekly refill number uses the current number of potions contained in the beaker.
