Turns out there is a reason fer using a small diameter rolling pin.

Note the part about "the belly". I hadn't noticed that, before.
Also, Andrea speaks about using the palm of the hand instead of
leaving it to yer fingers, which do not exert enough pressure.

Besides, where does one find a 3/4"-1-1/4" diameter bottle?
