Converting Grain Jar Lids for Liquid Culture
    #26807442 - 07/06/20 04:30 PM (3 years, 6 months ago)

Hello, I had a question about the practicality of converting jars intended for grain to be remade into liquid culture jars. I have attached pictures of some of the lids in question. The original design of the kids was what I imagine to be common grain jars using Synthetic  Filter Disks placed between the lid ring and lid itself.  I was intending to cover any extra unnecessary GE holes with RVT silicone. I would think this is fine but am I running into weird complication down the line? I’ve been considering buying a whole bunch of new jars to start fresh with.

You can just buy the lids...They are right there next to the jars. Like $3 for 12.

The cool kids around here have a big boner for pouring their LCs straight out of 500ml Media Bottles (ebay) with unmodified lids. They just pc a little loose and tighten after cool down apparently.

If you wanted to make some of the greatest LC lids for jars to syringe use I can help you though...

I really like those designs you posted pics of, and thank you for info on price, I was under the assumption they were costly so I didn’t bother looking.

Upon searching amazon I can only find options for 12 lids for $25-45. I’ll check out an actual mycology site.

Can you go to your local store such as walmart? Seems like lids only without rings are being a lil bitch online right now for some reason.

https://www.walmart.com/ip/Ball-Jar-Lid-Band-Wide-Mouth-Silver-12pc/16213251 heres lids with bands for $5, but the lids only are 9.99 on the site lol. I know they are $3 in walmart or any grocery store on the canning isle. tractor supply, rural king, anywhere man. They look lika dis

I now realize what you meant earlier lol, I somehow read it as being lids made for LC at $3 for 12. But yeah now that I realize I still think it's a good idea.
