Hi Mike,
Please use my review, w/ or w/o photos, as you please.

I've been using Pickle Pushers for a couple of months and am very pleased with them. They work well with quart sized Masons and I especially like them for 1.5 pint jars, which are straight from top to bottom, because they will sit tight at any height in the jar, with or without the plunger.

Another great way to use the pushers is for sprouting mung beans, which produce fatter sprouts if under pressure. Soak the beans over night, then place the Pickle Pusher in the jar tight against them and rinse, leaving to drain at an angle. Rinse twice daily, moving Pickle Pusher slightly higher up the jar each time, maintaining pressure but allowing a bit of space for them to grow. Nice fat sprouts after just a few days!
