Lid Tightness

#444523 - 11/02/01 08:38 AM (21 years, 10 months ago)

In a PF hole punched 1/2 pint jar situation: During PCing, should the lids be screwed on all the way or not. And if anyone has any insight on lid tightness during incubation I would appreciate that as well.

Leave the lids a little bit loose, during PCing and incubation.

I put the lids on tight while pc'ing. Failure to do so can result in steam entering your jar and screwing up your water ratio. Also, the water can sometimes boil over the bottom layer of jars and seep in through a loose lid.

There arent any pressure worries in the jars?

I keep mine tightly shut and never experience any pressure problems within the jar.
