Looking for Clarification on field capacity squeeze test
    #24903360 - 01/10/18 03:15 PM (7 years, 7 days ago)

I'm really tryn to get all my ducks in a row before I try my next run and I'm now questioning my field capacity levels. I've only gone by the squeeze test that RR demonstrates but now I'm thinking maybe my squeeze to to strong or maybe it's not strong enough. So is there any way to describe the squeeze in more detail? Like are we talking about

Limp hand shake squeeze = a few drops

Normal hand shake squeeze = a tiny stream for a few seconds

Or is it more like

Normal hand shake squeeze = a few drops

Shaking hands with your enemy causing him to squeal in agony squeeze = a tiny stream for a few seconds

Or is there a newer 2018 way to determine field capacity besides the squeeze test.

Normal,strong hand shake, a short drizzle followed by dripping. Even if the verm looks too wet it will feel better as soon as you add the BRF flour. If it feels a bit wet still then simply add more BRF until the consistency feels better.

Just use the 2.1.1 ratio and you can“t go wrong

Okay i gotcha. In that case I would say a very firm squeeze should generate a small drizzle for a sec and then stop. Really you just have to do it a few times and experience will teach you more than anyone else ever could explain to you.
