I don't know but I've been told. It's hard to run with the weight of gold                                                                  On the other hand I heard it said. It's just as hard with the weight of lead.

not needed, micropore tape on the inoc holes is plenty along with the dry verm barrier.

Coffee filters won't stop contaminants. If you want to cover the tops with something, use tyvek. In fact, you can skip the verm barrier and simply use tyvek on your 1/2 pint jars. It lets you get a bit more substrate into them.

It shouldnt get wet as long as you cover your jars with tinfoil while pressure cooking.

Yes if they are wet, its possible for contams to wick threw, they wont get wet from the substrate as you will leave a small gap so its not touching the tyvek.
