Mason jar lid question * 1
    #25749324 -

I’m about to start Bod’s easy af oat tek. I have wide mouth quart mason jars.

My question is, what do I do with the jars lid?

Do I modify it by drilling a 1/4” hole in the center and fill it with polifill?
Or
Place lid upside down and screw it tight?
Or
Use it as intended?

I have looked for this answer longer then I’d like to admit and I’m still confused.

Thanks in advance for taking the time to answer!

Holes w/poly or tyvek, or unmodified inverted works (loosen ring in pc). If GE seems important to you, drill 'em. I use tyvek but whatever works 4U.
:goodluck:

I now use plastic unmodded lids, they seem fine but we'll see

I used to use SFD, and still have them on some jars.

I am making Pastywhyte’s agar dishes that I will drop into the jars.
How many holes do you drill in the lid?
I have microspore tape. Can I place that over the hole or holes?

Sorry, but I was asking about the mason jar metal lid.
How may holes should I drill, and can I cover those holes with mp tape?

Thanks for your quick responses!

Um, in metal lids you can drill ''Holes w/poly or tyvek, or unmodified inverted works (loosen ring in pc).''
I hate to be 'that guy' but you might try the search posts feature?

Well shit! I knew this was going to happen. Sorry to be the noob asking previously answered questions. For what it’s worth I did try to use the search function. I typed my question 10 different ways. Man I’ve got so much to learn.

Thanks for the help guys!

You mean his tek didn't make it clear?!

You can totally drill a 1/4" hole in the lid and stuff it tight with poly-fil and your jars will be just fine. :thumbup:

Yea I screwed up and didn’t see Bod’s lid tek. Surprisingly his tek never popped up when I used the search (which still isn’t a good excuse because I saved the page that list all his tek’s).
Hookedd awn fhonics worked four me!

Non Mod Plastic lids FTW. I have great success with them and average 30qt runs when doing grain. Lots of jars.. Use non mod on all of them.

Forgive my ignorance. But with non mods do u just leave them unscrewed a little bit? And do u notice any drying doing it this way?
