redjako Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) Meh, get glass for the safest.Otherwise, from the Acclimation Issues thread from Sonthert:QUOTE Lastly, Acclimating in a Ziplock-type bag is not recommended. Ziploc bags are made of polyethylene and will absorb some flavors, notably mint and citrus flavors. If you are going to approach acclimation from this direction, just leave it in the bag it came in, which are nylon (#7 with an N under the recycling symbol), but I would recommend putting in a polypropylene tub. Nylon, polypropylene (#5), glass and polystyrene (#6) are good materials for storage. Polyethylene (#1, #4) and vinyl (#3) are not recommended. This is true for any brand of tobacco.

Stuie Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 10x7x2 I use some lock and locks similar in size. Easy to stir and scoop if you smoke Tangiers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonthert Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Ikea has a 30 container set of Polypropylene containers for $5. About half of them are useless, but that's 15 for $5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProbablyTaken Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 These are more expensive over-all, but I would be willing to bet they work quite well. The 4" opening is small, but still able to be reached into with fingers I would imagine.http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/40065867 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
