Why Blender Stack Exchange recommends it

Blender Stack Exchange users link it as a reference for glass modeling and wine simulation projects, and as the tutorial they were following when they ask about problems with their own bakes.

What it is

A 39-minute Blender tutorial from CG Geek that walks through modeling a wine glass, setting up a fluid simulation inside it, and rendering the wine with the Cycles Volume Absorption node. It was made for Blender 2.71 and uses the old fluid baking system.

I guess a better way to create the kind of thickness of the glass we want is demonstrated here : [this video] this also prevents the kind of problems you described.

Recently, I tried doing CG Geek's wine glass tutorial [this video] . Everything went well up until the fluid simulation part. Sometimes, the fluid doesn't bake. Other times, the fluid has some weird shape that does not collide with the the wine glass ( first try .blend file [LINK] ). Currently, I have no idea what the problem is. I tried doing it again and I got the same problem ( second try .blend file [LINK] ). I'm open to any suggestions, thanks in advance. Recalculating the normals didn't seem to fix the problem.

I'm trying to reproduce CG Geek's tutorial creating a wine glass and fluid: [this video] . While I created the wineglass on my own, I just wanted to focus on the fluid simulation, but Blender 2.9 got that Mantaflow thingy, whilst he was still baking the fluid with the old version. My problem is that I simply can't make the water splash out of the glass. It just keeps wobbling but that's it. Does someone have an idea how to create that nice splashing effect in Mantaflow and tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thank you in advance. Here is the link to the Blend file: [LINK] [LINK]
