Storing Inoculated Jars: SAB with Coffee Filters

Am storing my jars in my SAB, at 70°-80°.
I make sure I spray the inside of my SAB clean with Lysol, and I then cover the holes in my SAB with coffee filters.
The coffee filters will allow air into the box, hence my Gas Exchange, but it will also stop anything "bad" from getting to my jars.
Coffee Filters keep 90% of the dust out but let the air through.
Is this OK?

You don't need to keep your jars in a tub. They will be fine sitting out on a shelf. The vermiculite layer of your jar is all the protection you need for contams, anything else is just overkill

I put my colonizing jars into a tote since it's easier to store (stackable) and much less annoying moving 24 at once instead of 2.. I just use an old monotub with the holes taped

Mold spores go through a coffee filter like... well... you know.. a hotdog down a hallway.

I'm just saying... it'd fly through with so little resistance, so unlikely to even bump into anything... that if that coffee filter were a game of Operation and mold spore were playing, he would win every time.
