Jars for WBS
    #5537777 - 04/20/06 01:27 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

I am just using my 1/2 pint jars and lids for WBS(jars that I used for PF tek). My lids have 4 holes each in them. Will these work for WBS? I have read that you *have* to have polyfill and tyvek on your lids, how true is this?

1/2 pint is really small! quart jars are the recommended size. Remember, they do well with an initial shaking. So that's why u need the larger jar, you have to have the room to shake.

You can use micropore tape as well as the polyfill tyvek.

Yea, I know, that is a pretty small space for seed but it's all I have.


But do you think it will work if I use WBS doing the PK tek method? Or should I run to the post office real quick for some envelopes?

You mean you're going to cake some wbs?

A wad of polyfill and a few coffee filters will work too.. That's worked for me just fine.

If it's all you got, and you don't wanna buy nothing new, it will work just fine man.

Because with grain you don't use a dry verm layer you need some other sort of filter. So yes, you will need to go pick up some tyvek. Additionally I'd add two more 1/4 inch holes or one 3/8 inch hole to the lid for gas exchange.

You can grind the grain, and do it PF style. But I don't suggest that really. Just do the regular tek in smaller jars. The whole grains make for better spawn.

Just a 3/8" hole stuffed with polyfill and triple layer coffee filter over that. A-foil is left on after PC. inoculated through the a-foil and another layer put over that. Then the a-foil is lifted up a bit and dropped. So air can get under the air foil but contams cannot drop strait onto the coffee filters.

No, I'm just doing a bunch of 1/2 pint jars then going to make them into a casing. THis is my first attempt at using WBS and casing so I guess I will just have to experiment with the whole concept till I get'er right.

Hmmmmm....I guess I shoulda waited to start PCing my jars till after I got responses on this thread :crazy:

Hopefully it works for me.  I just put the jars in the PC with tape covering the holes and tinfoil on top of the jars. ::fingerscrossed::

Micropore tape or what? That will work fine as well if it's micropore tape.

erm...ehhh....masking.......:ashamed:

I have been to a shit ton of places with no luck on the micropore tape, so I have always used masking with very good luck. No contams for a long time.  Maybe tommorow after work I should devote an hour or two to going and getting the right shit :crazy:
