using the jar surely creates contamination of the contents by dipping fingers in and out ??

Use a clean measuring spoon every time and this limits the opportunity for contamination.

The same thing has happened to me as well. I have used wooden skewers to do the job. Just be careful not to prick your finger.

I haven't heard of this. I know that when It is used it is recommended that you wash your hands so you don't get it in your eyes or mouth. I would have to look into it more before doing this. Maybe contact the company.

Yes you can and it will be sanitized also. Being slow I stuck my finger in the steam and it was hot. Some cold water helped and I won't do that again.

yes, a slight dip, maybe to collect grease or to allow a spatula to dip under the pizza. Haven't noticed that it caused any problems with use. Hadn't even noticed it until you asked.

Hmm, I'm not exactly sure what you're referring to--I put a bowl under the section that the peels and seeds etc come out of, and then a bowl under the strainer that the sauce goes into. So, yes there are things coming out of the machine, but they're stuff you want to come out--the yucky part--and good part!! No real leakage to speak of. I hope that answers your question:)

Possibly it got contaminated either by dipping out of it with a utensil that was not completely clean, or if you left it open or didn't close it tightly after each use. My ghee from this company hasn't had that problem at all and it can take me up to a month or more to use a jar. I don't refrigerate it, and I have never had that happen.

I am not a vendor and have no answer.Perhaps probing the little hole in the attachment with a needle would take out the deposit or food particles stick in there. You can try to soak it on vinegar I asse

Maybe you put too much in the jar. Does it do this for liquids only or for provisions and grains as well? If so it just might mean you put too much.

I would say no to that. Jars are small, which might be good for a one use jar, but otherwise, no.

No, they're wrong. The plastic knob (the lid handle) holding the lid is secured by a screw and washer. Just the screw and washer are exposed on the inside of the lid. There is an air vent hole in the lid about big enough for a pencil to poke through. That air vent hole has a rubbery insert that goes through the lid top and bottom. Now, if that rubbery insert causes someone concern, they're just too paranoid. (It could even be removed by pulling it out.) I think it's great. I've just been using it a few weeks though.

Just make sure they are separated by sex in separate jars or you will sure nuff have a mess. Take it from me. Lordy Mercy!

The unsealed plastic containers do not present a problem for me. If the jars were sealed, it is possible that the un-sealing process could cause some of the powdery DE to float up and become airborne and the person who opened the jar might inhale some of the powder (although minor inhaling of this product that has the consistency of talcum powder is not a serious issue). Another reason the jars are probably not sealed is the fact that DE is mined from pure deposits from prehistoric freshwater lake beds. This product is not created in a lab and then purified or sterilized so there is no real reason to seal the jar to ensure purity. DE works in human and animal bodies to help remove and lessen the bad bacteria while not affecting good bacteria. It is pretty naturally pure so there no real reason to seal the jars. There is much information about DE at www.earthworkshealth.com that explains more of the benefits and usages of this amazing product.

I have never done this so I really don't know. I would think not since it is not recommended as a method on the packaging.

My cabinet does have a slight smell and I do store pasta in it. I've never had a problem with contamination. I don't know if it makes a difference but prior to assembly I allowed all the pieces to individually sit out in the living room overnight.

If you fingers are clean, they will not show easily. But if you play with your toy and eating something greasy at the same time, you will have to wipe your screen. That's why keeping the sprayer and the cloth included with the kit is a good idea.

Good question, although I've never had that problem. I've always been able to hold the jar just fine and use the opener to open the lid without any problem, because the opener is so efficient (and believe me, I have no strength in my hands). However, if I did have that problem, I would probably use a towel that had some roughness to it to get a good grip on the jar without it slipping out of my hand. Good luck!!
