Storage of dried shrooms

Was wondering if an unheated canning jar with a new seal would work for storage? Or should I use a regular jar ( mayo, salad dressing, etc. )? Any suggestions would be helpful.Thanks and Peace

Yeah if they are already dried its fine, you could through in a packet of silica gel to insure that no moisture would get in, and out of light is best.

...Ideal would be a vacuum chamber with opaque sides. But that is not cheap, and those certainly don't seem too cheap either. A canning jar, on the other hand...

vacuum sealing isn't really practical...
I like eating mushrooms way to often to screw with a vacuum everytime.

I meant no vacuum...just the lid and the ring- twisted down tight. Or would the hinged-lid with the plastic seal work better?
Anyone on the volume question? Peace and thankx!

Only 1 if you pack the fruit into it (meaning you are really going to be crushing the fruits), prolly 3 if you don't.

I don't know why you posted that Blind Guardian picture but I've been listening to them all day and I appreciate it. I was actually thinking of how I used to want that t-shirt.
