...one pound of food safe silica gel...

 

@kayb

I just looked back at the orders!

I was wrong! GASP!!!

It's 500 grams of food safe silica gel—so, 1 pound, 1.636 ounces, if I calculated correctly.

I bought three of them (1500 grams total) back in 2014 for $13.40 total per 500 grams—$40.20

I had two curing chambers operating at that time.

 

ETA: I keep an extra dry 500 gram 'pillow' so I can immediately replace the 'saturated' one with a dry one.

That way, there's always a desiccant 'pillow' in the chamber.
