I found these last year or the year before at one of the Amazon resale sites. You know the ones that sell the crap from China that was returned but not worth sending back.

A bit bigger than a Boveda but heavier. Each pack has 5 inside so you need to use all 5 at the same time. I used a pack or two when I realized I was going to have more surplus than I needed. Worked great on the mason jars.

I got two 100 pack bags for $3 each. Not sure what the real price isā€¦

Amazon used to have them but no longer available. View attachment 120505

I have 25 -30 used ones and I've lost the being impressed part. I was a fan then the zippers started ripping off. I had some bags dry out I though were supposed to keep the RH stable in. I have to add 2 - $5-.$7.50 humidity packs/1/4lb bag and they don't last long. I'd like to move to a better storage/cure method. Cvaults are too expensive. I just looked on Amzon for Vacuum canisters and there are some starting around $18- $20 for a 1lb coffee capacity. Cdn. I have a few items in a cart I'm going to add 1 or 2 tonight I think....Christmas and all,

Please review and share in detail. I am/was a fan of them too. Now three broken zippers later, I probably won't repurchase. I think an actual vacuum jar might be best. It will pull moisture to the surface, from the middle and that might greatly help with curing!!!

IDK about using cryogenics but I've used wine fridges I bought used off Craigslist, a mini fridge found near a dorm dumpster, and I bought a Bodega cooler which is basically a portable electric fridge/freezer.
Of them all, I really liked the wine fridges. No frills and only temp was 55 but also no compressor that adds condensation so with a fridge or the cooler, I need something to fight condensation

I did a custom build on a Koolatron. I love it. Great for drying and then curing. I had too much yield at one time for its capacity, so I used my second fridge in the basement and did a Lotus thingy magingy. And it too, went well. Everything is in the Koolatron curing nicely.

Basically Argon is has a higher density than air. You just spray some Argon into your jar and, as it settles, it pushes the air out the top. No air = no oxygen = no oxidation.

That's the "science" anyway. I wouldn't go through those lengths unless I was storing pounds for an impending apocalypse.
