Is there a proper way to shake my WBS jars?
Mine are ready and I just want to make sure I do it right.

If they are really stuck together i use a rubber mallet. Some people use a phonebook, bike tire, or roll of duct tape. I read about one person who uses a phonebook wrapped in duct tape. Use your imagination, its not rocket surgery

the tire is my favorite way. its crutial that you break ALL the grain. Cus the bigger the clumps are the less innoc point you have. so IMO there is not realy a proper way but more a proper result wich is 100% break grains.

Agreed, I've heard no other more effective way than the old bike tire method. I've done the jar to palm method before, and I was hurting pretty bad by jar 10 or so. It is really hard to garner the necessary force to break individual kernels without the tire, and I'm afraid if I used something like a book I'd break the bottle.
There is a small segment in one of RRs vids where he demonstrates this: http://www.mushroomvideos.com/Grain-to-Grain-Transfers

I smack it a time or two just enough to get it out of the jar, so it falls into a ziplock and than i massage them apart to garunte that they are all broken up and to ensure the quality of my spawn
