[QUOTE="Natch, post: 143451, member: 45"] One cautionary warning I would add, don't take the screw lid off the Mason-type jars even though the remaining disk-lid seems solidly sealed. If, as you want to happen, those happy little yeasty microbes work their magic over the coming years, the presser will be outward, pushing against the rubber gasket. I've had some lids literally bulge upward from the pressure. This is the opposite of using the jars for traditional caning of jams and such, as they are jarred up hot and as they cool, they create somewhat of a vacuum that holds the lid down tightly. Aging tobaccos create pressure in the opposite direction. Natch [/QUOTE]
