That's a great idea to keep them upright. I'm always sure I'm going to tip a strong flavor over and smell it forever.
Spilled some New York cheese cake on my leather office chair... My office smelled like funk for a few days.
Well, thank you. I have been meaning to make a wooden station to prevent spilling, but this actually works well and absorbs any spills.
skip the wood, it will absorb things too. just use a jelly roll pan. I picked up a 3 pack at walmart for like 5 bucks.. the sides are an inch high, so until I start mixing in bulk, it would contain any spill. plus its metal, so easy to just take outside and hose off, and if it still smelled, hey its only 5 bucks for a 3 pack, I can buy more.
Are u steeping ur flavoring?
Haha no. Per the caption, I used it as an impromptu mixing station so I didn't spill flavoring (learned the hard way). Had been meaning to make a wooden one, but if I do spill, the rice absorbs it...so, here I am two months later still using the same idea.
