  • Can you use reglaur storage containers of plastic, like the ones you get at IKEA, to store the mylar bags?! Does it have to be "food grade"?

  • @simenfd yes you can use totes,buckets,boxes etc as long as you are using mylar bags. The container just "holds" the mylar/food bag.

  • Yes it has been researched. Yes it is a inhalation hazard(simple google search shows that for both pool grade and food grade DE ) YES, None of the major LTS food processing plants use DE in their "super pails" or #10 cans for LTS.

    So, people can pack like the major food packers or go with questionable means . If you personally feel safe using FOOD GRADE DE, then by all means do so. Some people like to freeze their grains before storage, it's not wrong but i dont advise to do it.

  • It might seem easier now, but in 5 years when some of those wet packed cans have to be thrown out, it won't be easy then. 99% of folks do not rotate like they should and will have waste with using wet packed cans. With dehydrated your paying LESS (your not buying water weight) and the product stores for DECADES as we prove here. For most people who will not rotate correctly, this is the best option.
