So when you finally take the jar out of the freezer,
(having pre-drained the solvent off and put the jar back
inside inside the freezer upside down for 5 mins or so....

So then you take it out and try to warm it to room temperature
using a fan, and water condensation in the air - on the sides of the jar
turn your crystals to mush ...? Sound familiar ?

So you get a 50 Litre plastic tub from big hardware store.
You get old computer fan, and use an old phone charger / adapter
for a power supply.

Fill the bottom inch or so of the tub with damp rid crystals (calcium carbonate?) - available at same hardware store.
Stick a plate / similar inside, with the fan.

Take your jar straight from super-cold freezer - onto the plate in the
0% humidity box. Have the fan running - jar and xtals should warm to room temp, without mushy nightmares...

Seems to be work better than just open air blown over cold crystals.Thumbs up

id leave it upside down for a lot longer than 5 minutes.
also putting it in the fridge upside down instead of the freezer works great.
leaving it in the fridge until the condensation clears might help you out too.
Seek not abroad, turn back into thyself, for in the inner man dwells the truth.
