No problem idea was born out of pure impatience had a batch Goin and didn't feel like waiting had extra fittings laying around and an extra mason jar so threw it together and it works. If your hoses have valves then your set cus when you let the vac out on 1 the other loses the vac no biggie tho the mason jars are small enough they go into vac quicklyMan thats my new way. I dont know how I overlooked that extra red hose thats been in the way on the workbench for a few weeks. Big brain on you brother---thanks ----mike
