Honestly, the best drain cleaner I’ve ever used. I needed it for my tub shower and I have a septic system so I was reading every description instead of buying the usual two products. I’m very glad I got this one. It did great.

Great for decanting your water kefir, easy to screw on and pour the liquid without any spills. Also great for sprouting. The tabs help elevate the sprouts to keep them from swimming in water.I deducted a star because I wish the lids were 100% silicone instead of plastic, but the product works really well.

I’ve been sprouting for years, starting with a cut up square of pantyhose and a rubber band on a mason jar. I usually ended up with sprouts growing in the stockings. I’ve also tried other sprouting lids. These have tabs on top of the lid that keep the sprouts above the drainage water when the jar is upside down, so that they don’t start to degrade before the sprouts are even ready to eat. With these lids, I can grow and store, keeping the lid on and jar upside down in the fridge. By rinsing them even when being stored, they stay good longer. I have a set I bought in 2019, and re-ordered these to give to a granddaughter. (Those are just plastic container lids I’m using under the jars to catch the drips)

I use these to sprout lentils for my chickens! They’re almost a one and done kind of item, meaning that you put your item that you want to sprout in the jar and you never have to take that lid back off until you’re ready to use your sprouts. Broccoli seeds as small as they are do not slip through the holes. You can run water in through the cap daily. The cap is also designed to be raised so when you do your draining the water freely moves out. I feel like they are very durable. I have been using mine for several months now, they’re easy to work with. The size I bought was for the widemouth jars. And my chickens seem to be happy with the outcome of the product !

Je suis complante d'avoir choisi ces bouchons égouttoirs pour mes pot en verre de graine à germés. Ils répondent exactement à ce que je chercher. Plus qu'à les tester en condition.

I love these sprouting jars - I have two pairs - and I sprout alfalfa plus broccoli or radish every day. These are so easy to use and the sprouts stay super healthy even in the damp UK climate. I love the inverted spout for daily rinsing. I couldn't recommend more highly. And when one of the silicone gaskets needed they replacing I was immediately sent two new ones free of charge all the way from Canada. I have a load of their other products too which I'm also very pleased with. Such a wonderful company.

Wasn't sure these were going to work for me. My area has chlorinated and extremely hard water, which is supposed to be bad for sprouting. Gave it a try anyway. Bought these after reading quite a few complaints about rusting "stainless steel" jar covers. These cost more, but the inverted spout really makes filling easy. Point a faucet stream at the flat surface on the lid and you'll see the water basically roll off, but aim it at the inverted spout and you won't lose a drop. The faceted lid helps with gripping the lid when it comes time to take it off, but isn't really necessary to keep jars from rolling. My Ball jars are already kind of squarish so they won't roll.I really like mung bean sprouts, but not the fairly high price at the Asian markets. For my first try, I used sprouting-grade mung beans sold by Food for Life; you can find their product here on Amazon or on their own website for a slightly lower price. Filled a 32oz Mason jar with about 20% seed by volume since some sources say they will grow to 5x their original volume. Soaked them overnight for 12 hours even though the instructions say 6-8 hours. Many other sources say up to 12, so there's probably no harm in the longer soak. Didn't see much 12 hours after the soak and thought this experiment was a failure. The beans were still hard and there was barely any sign of a root. Continued the procedure of rinsing and draining every 12 hours anyway. Two days after the soak, there were 1/4" roots by the time I woke up and 1/2" by the time I went to bed, with the jar half full. The hulls had split on most of the beans. By day 3, roots were about 1" long and the beans had almost completely filled the jar. Day 4, they were ready to eat, and I replaced the Bean Screen with the original Mason jar lid for storage in the fridge. Unfortunately, thin roots. I miss the thick ones in commercially grown sprouts, but you can't get those with jar sprouting. You would need to put some weight on top of the sprouts as they grow, convincing them that they're underground and need to grow thicker and stronger to punch through to the surface. Can't do that with jars. There were a few beans that hadn't sprouted and were still a little hard. I decided to swish the sprouts around in a bowl of water before use. The unsprouted seeds just sank to the bottom and were easy to dispose of.No problems with mold or spoilage. Masontops gives you a link to a PDF with more detailed instructions, so follow those instructions. Don't leave the jar upside down. They specifically tell you to put the jar on its side after draining for a few minutes so the holes are clear to maintain air circulation. Don't expose the jar of sprouts to direct sunlight, which is too hot and dries them out too much. Sunlight can also make mung bean sprouts bitter. Google additional growing directions for the specific kind of seed you're sprouting. Again, no mold yet, but if I do get some, I'll just use a teaspoon of chlorine bleach in a pint of water and soak the lid and gasket separately in it for 30 minutes or so. Bleach dissolves organic materials including mold, and it's safe if you let it completely dry afterwards. Sodium hypochlorite, the active ingredient in household bleach like Clorox, breaks down into oxygen and sodium chloride – common table salt – when it dries. (2NaOCl -> 2NaCl + O2, as chemistry geeks would tell you.)
