I use the thicker foil you get on takeaway trays, pies & cakes. You do not have to be nearly as careful as its so much stronger.

I didn't realize that forming tinfoil lids all the time pissed off the collective here so bad ha ha. Neat idea, I'm sure they last forever.

Also I like this one. So many noobs have tried to automate a monotub; finally someone manages to do it right.
The wine glass grows always look cool, and the cash casing is a classic. It would be cool to see that with nothing but 100s

I did say whatever! I usually don't think about rubbing anything across my lips but attractive women but I'll have to give this one a try!

When I pick fresh fruits, if they have fuzzy feet/ fuzzy socks, I like to rub it across my lips. It's the softest feeling thing in the world, I love it, and a ritual of sorts for me LOL..

Silicone covers? This is something you cut or shape from silicone sheets? Are you able to wrap over the sides of the lid/jar 360 degrees?
Nyjer? That is definitely obscure to me! I guess you really have to be into birds 
I love that so many people here have the experimenting spirit. I have it too but I've never had a good location to just play around with everything or anything enough to be scientific (or even half-ass scientific).

Also, not really new, but using grass seed with 10% nyjer as oil supplement soaked in gypsum while hydrating is an amazing initial jar for g2g.
Super easy to great distribution without a shake when xfer to rye/whole oats. Very fast recovery due to the hull and can easily hit 50:1 ratio.

I love this one! Covers made form these could be used indefinitely, thanks!

I think I get it and feel silly now. I was picturing some kind of reservoir shaped into the substrate or casing. Thanks, this tip alone was worth starting this thread!

folded up foil can be used indefinitely believe me just don't fold it up too much or it will be too hard to mold around the lids.
I can't remeber but I think folding a big peice of heavy duty in half foil three times is perfect. I use this size for every style container universally.

Silicone canning jar covers. Do a search on amazon or browser. Not common at all, but there are a few manufacturers.
It's fit already, so you have to look at the mouth size, depending on your jar stock.
Nyjer = thistle seed (commonly Finch seed) Very high oil content and for some reason stays black when colonized (or maybe its not softened enough when I used it) Can be ground like flax in a PF cake

I make this for brf plates LI's

But I also do it with agar, it helps a lot if the agar is not soft enough for a blenderless LI.

is that a ball of solder? Is it galvanized wire or something if not solder?

It's not galvanized and it doesn't rust, that's all I can tell you I just saw it at the store and decided to give it a try, don't even know what material is.

blenders work way better
here's my baby

originally I was doing slurries with wide mouth cakes so I adjusted my blender and my wide mouth lid to accommodate that.
there are some jars with the no silicon lids thanks to dialated
but now I have these with the pour spout and the blender all in one and i just cut my c akes in half with a butter knife so they fit thanks to eatualive

Just need some clarification on the silicon jar covers. You put these over your regular lids (with the filters) and pressure cook ? They say they are air tight, that kind of scares me. Then you take them off after everything is cooled and do your innoc ?

Of course they work way better, nice job man. My shoddy thing do the job just fine, but you couldn't do brf cakes or grain slurries with it.

I know it's kind of weird but I talk to my mushrooms and encourage them, or when I'm out picking I'll thank them and the area. Sometimes leave the radio on low, might as well give them something to listen to.

idk, i havn't seen a huge difference between blended and blenderless. about 24-36 hours, maybe. is that considered way better?
