Plastic containers, base configurations for plastic containers, and systems, methods, and base molds thereof. Plastic containers have base portions constructed and operative to accommodate internal pressures within the container due to elevated temperature processing, such as hot-filling, pasteurization, and/or retort processing. Plastic containers can also be constructed and operative to accommodate internal pressures within the filled container resulting from subjecting the filled plastic container to cooling or cool-down processing. Contenedores de plástico, configuraciones de base para contenedores de plástico y sistemas, métodos y moldes de base de los mismos. Los contenedores de plástico tienen partes de base construidas y que operan para adaptar las presiones internas dentro del contenedor debido al procesamiento a temperaturas elevadas, tal como procesamiento de llenado con contenido caliente, pasteurización y/o retorta. Los contenedores de plástico también pueden construirse y operar para adaptar las presiones internas dentro del contenedor lleno que resultan de someter el contenedor de plástico lleno a enfriamiento o a un procesamiento de enfriamiento.
