Yes.

Wipe it with a damp cloth first to remove any grit as it's harder than glass and can damage or even break a jar.

Anything firm with a little give would work really a phone book.  A roll of duct tape.  Etc.  .  Just be careful not to shatter your jar and get a million pieces of glass stuck in your hand instead as a reward.

Should work fine, give it a try. Worst case you break a jar :shrug: let us know how it goes. Keep in mind a car tire is a lot more firm.

I use a rubber mallet.  Best tool ever for breaking up spawn.

Works perfect on the tough cracked corn spawn. Bruises your hand. But works

that's bacteria, and its hard to break up.
healthy spawn you dont have to bang against anything just shake the jar.

Yeah, if you aren't able to break up your colonized grains by hitting it with your hand, it's probably bacterial. It hurts when you have a bunch to shake but you know what they say, no pain, no gain.

I wrap mine in a towel and bounce it on my bed.  I'm not about to risk breaking a good jar OR getting glass in my hand. Nope nope nope.

I'd recommend holding the jars by the lid next time, and kinda whipping it with your wrist. I've always used the lid as a way to hold it, I've had many jars break on me, not a single injury yet in mycology except the occasional bumping into the corner of a shelf or some shit :frown:

Let's hope I didn't just jinx myself lol

:lol: these days I usually bang it a couple times on my hand to get it in big chunks and then shake like 5 shakes and done. I broke a lot when I had bacterial spawn a lot.

The only time I broke a jar during shaking was when I decided to shake two at once. Hit one with the other and it rained grain spawn. :facepalm:

Then there's those times when I g2g a jar and forget to tighten the lid before shaking. :doublefacepalm:

You guys crack me up!  I say again:  Hold jar by lid, smack a glancing blow or two with a rubber mallet.  Done.  So easy.  So safe.  So cheap.  Plus mallet has plenty of other uses around the house.

I have a rubber mallet, which also serves as a fist and a hand. Pretty good too, I do everything with it.  :rofl:
