Where do you store the jars?
-
The main idea being expressed is the enjoyment derived from sampling new varieties, as it allows for a comparison with previously tried varieties and helps in determining whether the strain is worth cultivating again. This process gives reassurance that the quality of the existing collection is still top-notch. The taste of these new flavors can indeed be quite captivating.

My current storage spot for it is in a kitchen cupboard; it's not ideal, but it's handy. However, it's not suitable for extended periods, specifically beyond six months.
I'm searching for a location that maintains a consistent, cool temperature, yet is easily accessible.
I'm puzzled!

Firstly, it's a pleasant issue to face as not many are fortunate or proficient enough to maintain several jars in the long run. I usually store them in my bedroom's bottom drawer or beneath the kitchen sink, basically any cool, dark place. I avoid storing anything high up or close to a light source. My drawer accommodates 16 quart jars, indeed, I am fortunate enough to face this issue. Regarding my skills, it could be a yes or no, however, it's an ongoing process.

The concept of "old" is subjective. For instance, I find "new" too intense; I prefer something that has been cured for at least a month. A three-month cure is decent, while a six-month cure is excellent. However, I usually exhaust my supply by the third month. I have a rule not to use anything less than three months old. In my opinion, "old" would mean something that's around four to five years or more.

I've discovered that my plants tend to thrive in conditions that are also comfortable for me in terms of temperature and humidity. I don't have a lot of flexibility with this, but using air conditioning significantly aids in maintaining these conditions. To store my one-gallon painted jars, I place them in a duffle bag and keep them hidden under a couch in my personal space, ensuring they're kept away from light. Keep in mind, your results may vary.

I will always keep the location of my fortunate tokens a secret.

Firstly, it's a good issue to confront, as not everyone has the fortune or talent to maintain several containers for an extended period. I favor storing in the bottom drawer of my bedroom or beneath the kitchen sink, basically anywhere that's dark and cool. I avoid places that are high or close to a light source. My drawer can accommodate up to 16 quart jars, and I feel fortunate to face this challenge. As for my skills, it's debatable, but it's definitely an ongoing journey.

The individual expressed their habit of trying out new varieties to compare them with previous ones, to determine if it's worth cultivating again. They find reassurance in realizing their existing collection continues to be of good quality. They also discuss their personal definitions of "new" and "old" in terms of curing duration. For them, the fresh product is harsh, one that's been cured for one month is better, a three-month cure is good, and six months is exceptional. However, their supply typically only lasts three months.

I'll never reveal the location where I keep my fortunate tokens.

My items are concealed in airtight containers, tucked away in a cool, dimly lit closet behind a deceptive wall. While a dog might sniff them out, they'd be virtually invisible to a casual observer.

There's a certain area in my corridor that features two doors above, accompanied by shelves, and four extensive drawers beneath. This seems like a linen closet, a feature that modern homes often lack. The drawers are ideally sized to accommodate seven rows of mason jars, each five jars deep. The upper shelves are suitable for storing half-gallon jars. The temperature and humidity in this space remain stable. Perhaps you could consider a standalone cabinet or cupboard? Something equivalent to the size of a large gun safe or a small fridge could be ideal.

There's a unique feature in my corridor, consisting of two doors at the top with shelves, and four spacious drawers below. It appears to be a linen closet, a feature that seems absent in modern homes. The drawers perfectly accommodate seven rows of mason jars, each row five jars deep. The upper shelves are ideal for half-gallon jars, with a stable temperature and humidity. Perhaps you might consider a standalone cupboard or cabinet? Something equivalent in size to a large gun safe or a small refrigerator could be suitable.

The individual was looking for a solution to prevent rattling noises from glass/metal and metal/metal, as well as to soften the sound of a cabinet drawer opening and closing. They were also attracted to the idea of controlling temperature fluctuations. They had some spare cork from a previous project, so they decided to use it. Despite being slightly costly, they found that it added a nice aesthetic touch to the design. While other materials like thick fabrics or foam could have performed the same function, they wouldn't have looked as appealing.

A file cabinet that has been secured with a lock, and whose bottom and sides have been lined with sheets of cork.
