sounds like he accidentally used the glass as fuel and melted the coal into a flask.

i wonder what happens if you try to milk a fire snake into it ...

Isn't there a known bug with flasks ending up being constructed of a random material?  On the wiki's bugs page there are people talking about orders to make iron flasks producing gold flasks or gypsum flasks.  Somebody else tried to make a adamantine flask and got an iron flask.
