quick filter question

Ok I am about to put a batch of wbs in the pc and I realized that I never put the lids on before the tyvek as is shown here in magash's rye tek http://www.shroomery.org/index/the/default/par/26177
my question is, do i really need the lids under the tyvek or can I just use the ring and the tyvek, a prompt reply would be appreciated because I've got everything ready to go into the pc, I just stopped to look into this

I'm pretty confident about the seal but I am worried about grain touching the filter

shaking is a problem with no ring but then i cut mine to the shape of the lid because twisting the lid over tyvek seems wrong

Always do mine with two quarter inch holes drilled in metal lid across from one another, then tyvek underneath & double coffee filter over top, after tyvek, lid & ring are added. Several thousand times & no problemo.

I've found that the smart thing to do is to listen to agar
so thats tyvek, then lid, then ring, finally the coffee filters right

I have also used just Tyvek and the rings no problem but prefer lid with 3/8in. holes (2) over Tyvek and then ring. I also throw foil over the top too. Just too keep spore counts down, just a personal preference.

Yup.
Tyvek under lid.
Lid with two..... 1/4 or 3/8ths inch holes over Tyvek
Add ring
Hold coffee filters down with rubber bands.
Don't have lids tight when you PC.
Tighten when you remove from PC.
C/filters will dry out in a minute - when removed from hot PC.
Once dry, you can write on them.

Well consider the expansion and contraction of the metal vs. the glass. This advice will allow easier removal of the lids afterwards. IME

Damn you guys way way way overthink stuff. Tyvek on top of the lid, below the lid, as long as the tyvek is between the grain and the outside air it doesn't matter how you have it.
