LocknLockCylindrical Food Container - 1.8 L

I grow mushrooms and one of the types is Shittake. I want to avoid using the common plastic bags used in the mushroom industry because they are one-time-use and then become part of the waste stream. I have been searching for a re-usable plastic container as a spawn jar that in the case of shittake the mature mycelium is removed to go into the fruiting stage. This container fits the bill. First i checked the seal. the container held vacuum over a week and when i opened it, it hissed as air rushed in much like a ball jar. I then drilled two holes in the lid; one 1/4" for a injection port, the other a 1/2" for a filter patch. the plastic is nice and thick, not flimsy at all. the injection port seated in like a dream. The plastic is PP5. I put one container with medium in it inside my pressure canner. I put it at 15 psi, over 2 hours and the container did not deform or melt in the least. This container is an absolute winner in my application and I couldn't be happier.
