From what I've heard the filters on the bags work just fine... but my gut reaction is that the extra air pushed thru the filter either compromises it or forces bacteria through. 17/18 bags used contaminated vs 0/12 jars using the same LC. As a beginner it's hard to say for sure what the problem was but all of the problems that were happening with bags stopped immediately when using jars. In my opinion, it feels like bags are something that shouldn't be disturbed until it's time to shake or spawn, and as a beginner it's only natural to want to pick up and inspect grain to make sure everything is going well.

My best educated guess based on my own experiences.

just to clarify in case someone reads this thread in the future- not sure about anything bigger than .5 micron bags, but .2 and .5, if properly sealed, won't have any air pushed out if squeezed.  maybe u can smell mycelium from the filter, but the amount of air coming out is negligible.  if u DO feel air when u squeeze a bag, u need to check the seal, it probably failed.  in this case, if the bag was squeezed a lot, contamination was probably sucked in from the failed seal, and the bag is then compromised a few days later.

I agree tho thats jars are much easier and more fool proof
