Help with part, healthcare person needed

I have one of these

I was going to use it to dose hop extract during the boil. I need the vile that goes in it. If anyone could help I would offer a Cornie to trade or ?

Thanks!

Hop extract dosages are measured in ml isn't it? Not microliters or smaller, over a set period of time, as for medication?

This looks like total overkill. Why not use a graduated pipette or syringe to measure out your hop extract dosages.

I agree, but I won it for a buck on ebay. I was going to automate the hop dosages after I get my brewery complete. I have a vending machine auger to add hops via muslin bags and for a buck I thought I could tinker to get this to automate the extract additions.

Is the size of the vial critical? It's just a dispensing reservoir, right?

Don't hopshots come in a vial already? Or syringe? Did you look on Amazon for vials or test tubes of the right length? A White Labs yeast tube (they're bottle pre-forms)?

Dispensing hop bags with an auger? I'm looking forward to a video on that. Must be one heck of a brewery you're building!

It's a proprietary vial.
