Polyjuice Potion question

[nineve_laguna]

No: HPFGUIDX 88525

At the end of GoF, DD explains the plot, and tells that if Barty Jr 
doesnt take his hourly swigs he will transform back. The polyjuice 
potion is taken as a gobletfull for the first and most painfull 
transformation and then the transformee only needs top-ups every hour,
just like a vaccin, where you take the major first jab and then top 
up every year with a less concentrated potion, just to keep the blood 
flowing with it constantly.
As to put slimy and thick potions into a hip flask, anything will go
down with a porcelain funnel, or, if you are a qualified and clever 
wizard you can just do a spell and transfer the potion from the 
cauldron to inside the flask with a swish of the wand and no mess.
An extra large opening of the hipflask would ensure that a large swig 
would flow down even if it was almost solid, just like old army water 
cans.

polyjuice question, just the same. I thought the potion was thick and 
glutinous, and that HRH drank a glass-full each to effect their 
transformations in COS. Barty Jr. has a flask-full from which he 
takes frequent swigs. It would seem a difficult potion to transfer to 
a flask, much less "swig" from . . . I guess it's possible, but it 
seemed odd.
