masking tape for 1/2 pint jars
    #23989725 - 01/07/17 02:40 PM (7 years, 23 days ago)

Is it necessary for masking tape on 1/2 pint jars to boil them? I would like to skip this step.

I don't know anyone that has ever used masking tape for anything other than labeling the sides of tubs.

I have read posts where people use masking tape as a substitute for micropore tape. A bad idea IMO :lol:

Micropore tape is an extra barrier for contaminants and helps preserve the moisture content in the jars while they sterilize.

Edit: I had this tab open twice and tried to edit it more than once. It doesn't seem like it's taking.

Not quite. Micropore tape can be used as an extra barrier for PF jars. Skip it, OP.

one more question.  The purpose of boiling is to disinfect the verm and the inside of jars?

We boil to make steam. The steam does the sterilizing. Disinfection wouldn't be nearly sufficient enough.
