I finally recieved my tyvek envelopes. What are you guys using to easily and quickly cut them to size for wide mouth jars?

take a lid and draw a circle around it and cut a little more then the circle.
Or do what i do and screw the lid on and cut the rest off. Seems to work the best

I would use 4 circular saws, with diamond studded teeth, and use all 4 at once, so its faster!
Or you could tie your shoe laces together, grab some scissors, and start running!
Seriously, did what kind of response did you think you would get? Tin Snips? Fabric Shears? Garden Pruners?

Maybe cookie cutters or something that's round.
I didn't want to use square cut filters incase it were to become wet during pressure cooking.
Thanks for the pointless response though!

Nah, squares work fine, just cover the jar with a piece of alum foil and you'll be set. Honestly, squares work better then a circle does because:
a.) Lot easier to cut out b.) Will easily cover the entire mouth of the jar c.) Less work then making circles. d.) You can get more square filters from a sheet then you can a circle.

Where did you find your tyvek? I was told it can be found at a PO but I didn't find any envelopes there that had been lined with tyvek.

its not the lined envelopes.. its the envelopes themselves.. they are made entirely out of tyvek. just go in and ask for the Priority Mail envelopes.. you can have as many as you like!!!

it grants three wishes when rubbed!
(sorry the smart-ass comments further back are a bad influence)
actually it makes for a good filter material. allows for gas exchange, keeps most contams out, and holds in moisture.

Can someone let me know if there are any consequences to spiking a pressure cooker to 20-22psi for 5-10 minutes while cooking your casing mix? Will it dry it out more, or have I baked it a little too much?
Hopefully this question makes more sense.

can't this be omitted if using sterile techniques and a couple coffee filters, or are the results w/Tyvek very noticable...
