if it was a cake pan. would the cake slide out easy? or is there a rim that would hold it in. if its small rim you could get away with it as most cakes shrink a bit.

There were wide mouth pint jars at wal mart as well, I looked to see the difference and I couldn't see much of one. They Both have that little glass lip inside of it about a half inch down from the opening, it's not a big bump but there is one there ... is this a problem. The jars are kerr 1/2 pint regular mouth canning jar.

Has anybody used these exact type of jars w/ no difficulty removing the cakes? If it comes down to it I can either break the jars once fully colonized and after simply order the correct one's. Again, has anybody used these exact type of jars with no difficulty removing the cakes? Thx ^^

Just try it and see if it works. I think breaking the jar is overkill dude.

For sure, thx guys for the help, Patience is a virtue. I'll wait till birthing time then give it a shot and if it won't come out then other jars must be found. Just curious to know if anyone has used the same exact one's with success.

Honestly, just spoon the mycelium out and make a casing. It's not THAT hard. Honestly, I think people VASTLY overrate the difficulty of growing mushrooms, especially in this day and age when we have such great and informative information sources!
Just be careful not to overdo the crumbling process and try to keep the chunks relatively consistent in size.

If you use grains you can use (almost) any shaped jars you want.
