Yes, fwop is what I call the wet sound. Never tried the squeeze bottle, but will have to try it. Depending on desired size I sometimes us a 1/3 or 1/4 measuring cup to get a desired amount of batter.

If they made a wet sound, they were not ready. You can put the pancake batter in a washed out squeeze bottle, like a ketchup bottle, to make them easier to get in the pan or on the griddle.
