I boil my yeast starter in this flask and just use a dish towel wrapped around the neck to pick it up. Crimp a sanitized piece of tin foil over the mouth and then into the fridge for cooling.

Zoo Med and Exo Terra both make feeder tongs and are available on Amazon. You will need a heat source, especially in the colder months, in order to breed them successfully.

Any sand papper will work . You will just have to punch holes in the papper for the dust collection slots

It is not recommended that you use metal utensils, Just get a set of plastic utensils and they will work find.

It sounds like the Tupperware orange peeler. Tupperware used to give them out all the time. The hook end slices through the peel and the flat end goes under to peel.

I use the small metal paint can openers that I got from Lowes for free. They work perfectly and are WAY better than a screwdriver.

If it gets wet just wipe it dry with a cloth and its ready to use. You can use your pocket knife or any straight edge to scrape with.

you could use a slotted spoon. I have tough fingers so I just reach in and pinch two of the tabs and lift out.

I bought a 17 piece plastic utensil set thru Amazon which works perfectly. Wood probably would work also.

I just turn it upside down with a bucket underneath, then shovel out with a little hand shovel. It would be hard to scoop it out since there is a pole through the middle, despite the opening being about 1ftx1ft.

If you are asking in order to eat it, there are mini silicone spatulas that are extremely flexible and can help scrape almost everything off. If what you want to do is clean it in order to use it for something else, warm water and soap will take care of it. You can use a bottle scrubber to scrape anything left in the container.

I believe you would be more successful using the scrape blade on one of the reciprocating tools like a Fein Multi tool. I have used mine and had good luck with the removal. You can pick up one of those tools for less than $100. Good luck with whatever you decide to use!

I purchased a little tool from Amazon (egg poacher lifter) that lifts them out of the water, but before that, I just used a pair of tongs to pick them up. I still must use the tongs to help place the pod onto the lifter.

You could use an axe on it. No amount of scraping with a fork or knife will damage it, ever.

I guess you could try to contact the manufacturer, but I doubt it. How'd you manage that anyway? For future reference, I put it in the basket where the utensils go.

I use the leatherman wave. It fits but is a little too deep. I cut the corner off a rag and packed it into the bottom to get the tool to sit at the right hight so you can grab it.

I have the tongs, funnel and the magnetic lid lifter. The tongs are to lift hot jars. I still give my lids and jars a boil bath right before I use them. I would recommend having all of the equipment used to can.
