How big and how many holes do I put in my Quart grain jars?

I just got back from the store with 3lbs of rye grain and I'm ready to prep my quart jars. How many holes do you guys put in the lid and how big? I'm going to be using polyfill for the filter.

I use 1 hole @ 3/8"...anywhere between 3/8" & 1/2" you'll be fine.

My lid tek is in my signature :awethumb:

I do the same thing. Except I punch 2 holes, plus one small 1/16-1/8" hole in the center of the lid for the RTV port. And I use tyvek. So not exactly the same thing, but you get the idea.

So for the injection port just drill a 1/4 hole and fill it with rtv? Could I just cut tyvek and rtv glue it over the bigger hole for ge? I don't really have the money to buy sfd.

Injection port hole does not need to be that big.

Smaller hole is easier to keep RTV sealant on.
