I have written this before but I'm sure it's lost in the mists of time so here it is again.
You need at least six bounces to make a bottle with thickness show all the important features you expect, and not reach a black nothingness.
For most people there is NO reason to EVER set the bounces lower than six. FireFly (unlike SuperFly) doesn't use bounces unless it needs to, so using a lower, inferior setting doesn't do you any good, but using a higher, superior setting does, especially when you go a couple years and can't remember rule 1.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
