coldogfishing Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 Can someone explain to me how the presto pots work? Also how to make a presto pot stirrer. I have been using a microwave but I can see myself needing a presto pot soon. I use injectors but I don't suck up. I pour into the injector. Should I get a pot with a valve and just fill my injector thru the valve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallyc14 Posted October 10, 2014 Report Share Posted October 10, 2014 When I shot small batches I load my injecters like you. It's easier for me. But when I break out my presto I'm making a BIG batch you can leave your injecter in the pot the heat will keep it hot just make sure you purge the injecter after each round. That being said as far as stiring units bait junkys sells them as well as a few others but I have not purchased one yet I stir by hand a lot it's a pia but you do what works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ipt Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 unless you have a ton of molds, the microwave is still better IMO. as fast as you can wait for the molds to cool and demold and prep your injectors for the next batch, you can have your next batch in the microwave getting ready to go. i usually have enough molds to make 2 bags of everything, and i can put out a lot of the same color by using the microwave. just have to get a system down.

elrat69 Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 Who carries the presto pot ready to go with a stirrer? Other than bears baitjunky's has a stir system. Go to Wal-Mart; drill out to holes; bolt on good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
