Great question!. You can use a glass container, as well. Do not use a stainless steel one, though, because stainless steel contaminates and ruins pickle. The reason people use crock pots is for the heat. Pickle works better when it is warm. You can also use a glass jar over a candle warmer to get the same effect, but a crockpot is ideal. Just remember that whatever you use, it can never be used for food again.
Can anyone tell me if all these items are still what we want to use in 2023/24 or are there newer, better items on the market now? ? Any help from anyone could be great 🎉
Yep - these are all still great options! There are a bunch of different torches, fluxes, and products to solder on, so it's just a matter of finding what you like best. The materials for soldering haven't changed too much over the years!
