what's the best way to fill them, if you don't have a tray?

You could also put tubes on a flat surface & wrap a towel around them - to help them stay up. Works for a lot of people.

I put mine in a ramekin (flat bottom:straight sides) - poured the liquid balm into a small pitcher and poured. Worked perfectly. Any excess merely scrapes off once hardened... Which takes a cpl of hours.

I lined the empty tubes up in parallel , used broad packing tape to hold them together then rolled them up, parchment style and stood them in a Pyrex measuring cup. They were secure, upright, thru the filling and cooling, solidifying process. No worries about spillage!

after making the lip balm pour it in a glass measuring cup with a lip or funnel then pour the mixture in the tubes. I had no problem with the tubes staying up let cool before placing caps on tubes.

Pull the salt top section off - just above the black seal. You can fill from top. Hope this helps.

I put them in a plastic lidded shoe box and filled it with water approx. 1/2 way up (3 qrts). You can always use a strainer and get rid of extra water if you want. Or use extra water so they can slosh around.

just put your frozen item on the tray ... if you wish, warm the tray first with warm water

I actually put water to just below the cups. And that seems to do the trick. I agree the directions are a bit vague, but honestly I think as long as you have water in there your fine. Make sure it has started to boil before putting the tray in with the eggs. Took me a while to get the perfect egg, but I had never made them before so it was a bit of a learning curve, but now they come out perfect. Hope this helps.

I use the Convert-A-Tray Speckled CT-2SGP (Nesco website) . They can be used as a regular tray or, with the removable center, can expand the height to whatever you need. (Nesco FD-75)

Just remove trays if you need more space between them. You can take as many trays out as you need. Some people put bowls of bread dough in this.

Yes, just go to their site and order them--I ordered extra trays with my initial order. I have 6 total and a few times I've filled up all of them.

When I make Jell-O shots in these I put a small amount in first and let them cool in the stand in the refrigerator then bring them back out and fill. You can also alternate colors that way They seem to not leak if you start with just a small portion.

You fill it from the top. The gray part at the top comes off and this allows food to be put in.

I would suggest just starting out, this is plenty. Additional trays can be purchased online or contact Uncle Jim's worm site.

I usually fill mine upside down. I place a small funnel in the bottom and press the lever to open the hole. Pour honey in to fill.

They won't fit in the Infantino station since the spout is bigger so you can't attach them to it. However, you can use the filling tubes and press to fill them up.

Get yourself a non-fancy machine. I can fill 24 caps at one time with my non-fancy machine.On the other hand - just fill the big part of the capsule by plunging it into a container of what you want to fill it with. Then jam the stuff down with a pencil - and keep on filling - then slip the small part of the capsule over the end of the big part - and squeeze those puppies together.

You can hold them and fill them or place them in the stand and fill them. I had no problems :)

Our smaller size comes in a disposable, wax lined box. Just take the lid off and you are ready to use. Our larger size does not come with the tray but we have a new, much more affordable tray option for that size that you can additionally purchase. Just go ahead and contact our company directly to learn more about this!

You twist off the top and fill it up from there. I generally fill it up every time I use it.
