Beautiful

I only just come across this on your website. I don't know how many seeds I've had from you not knowing how they were packed 😉 always a delight to open a packet, will be more so now😀

Phrasing!

😊

Hola, espero que se encuentren bien, quisiera hacerles una pregunta, quiero descascarillar cacao, pero en la página web no encontré la medida de profundidad ¿alguien tendrá ese dato? o es a criterio propio hacer el corte de la profundidad de la máquina. De antemano les agradezco su ayuda.

I have made a machine on similar principles ,but due to the funnel concentraighting the seed into a dense uneven stream im thinking a zig zag piece of wood a few inches below the funnel might spread the seed more evenly and get a more even effect as it enters the airflow. Isnt it satisfying to make a machine that works.😊

You have ruined the mystique for me, I had thought that you guys had some little helpers, elves, fairies something like that to pack and process the seeds for lucky customers, but you have this glorious machine instead. It is just that the very unique design of the seed packets that I really appreciate.

If anyone is about to add yet another comment asking if you can use vinegar instead of hydrochloric acid, then you will find the answer to your question not only in the video but also in all the comments below....

Is it possible to use vinegar instead of HCl 10%

Fab. Beauty of good engineering .

What a satisfying comforting sound!

Hello, do you sell yacon plant or seeds?

Very interesting piece of equipment thanks for sharing. The sound would drive me nuts l think after awhile of working next to it. 😂 You seeds are great too, l love the paper bags with the information so helpful

I'll probably never need or make this but just to say, Real Seeds are one of the greatest suppliers on the internet. Ethical, fair, DIY, thank you for everything.

What is the effect of acetic acid solution over Toato Brown Rugose Virus, please can some one explain please ??????????

Can it be performed with the help of acetic acid (diluted) solution in place of hydrochlic acid ??????????

What a machine!

How do I buy one

What a brilliant machine, smooth running and labour saving, couldn't imagine doing all that by hand. Proper engineering and such longevity, don't see much of that these days. How much time did it take you to learn how to use it and overhaul it?

Brilliant video although I would recommend 3 additional steps when handling acid!! • Instead of plain water for emergency acid spills, use a solution of sodium bicarbonate and water as this will neutralise the acid rather than spreading it around and diluting it! • After pouring acid from the container you must ALWAYS clean the acid residue from the container side, base and around the screw top! • When you put your tomato and acid solution into a food type container like a food jar you must label it with acid clearly so nobody has a surprise Bloody Mary 😂

Love the resourcefulness ❤

Do you know where someone could find one of those machines ?

Fantastic 🇬🇧👍🏻

I love your "Brown Bag Filling Machine!" Far more elegant and fascinating to watch than it's given title! A fascinating engineering masterpiece rather than a few computer controlled robotic arms. We've already bought a decent seed bank from you and will be ordering more soon, it's a pleasure to buy from a group of caring gardeners trying to help the world, rather than a big company driven by profits! Much respect and gratitude to you all! ♥️

Just built mine yesterday for cacao. Only took me a couple of minutes to get it dialed in and it works perfectly. THANK!!

Awesome piece of kit,so glad you shared this and your seeds are top notch too,in particular,I bought a packet of lemon chillies amongst other seeds,and wow,awesome heat and flavour 👍

Amazing ❤️ just like your seeds and your ethos! So glad I found you. Keep up the great work

I came here from the web page but didn't see a download for the plans, is there one? Thank you.

many thx awesome project!!!

awesome!

How fantastic to be using such a quality piece of historical machinery!

Thank you very much for this design and your explanation. Were from Argentina and since 2015 are saving heirloom and native open polinization seeds. Your machine is wonderfull!!! Very kind of you to share and for the spanish description. Thank you!!!

I also build with with reclaimed or materials from my land. Well done with that build it looks very good in operation. How did you do this before you built it I am a customer of your wonderful seeds and save many but I don't think I am yet producing enough to build one.

Loved seeing the process

Lol 7 .who makes a gauge that goes to seven ?Spinal taps amp that goes to 11 comes to mind

I am not a seed producer, but this is an excellent and helpful video for those who need it. Ben, thank you for taking the time to do this.

Do you imagine this would work for lavender buds?

👍👍👍

Do u think this could work for small bits of cable to get copper out

Hello, these are nice. I wish someone would make a small one for home use that would separate debris from wild bird seed. Mainly black oil sunflower seed. That would be awesome and I have read so many people needing something like that.

In case anyone else was curious, the regulations in question seem to be (EU) 2019/2072, in particular Annex V Part E which requires acid extraction or an equivalent method in relation to tomato seeds. The intention seems to be to prevent the presence of Clavibacter michiganensis bacteria.

Awesome, THANK YOU!!!

so generous of you to share. thank you very much!

Hypnotic and relaxing. I could work that machine for eight hours a day and be very happy.

This is very cool :-)

Nice to see your craftsmanship. We can understand professional build machine sometimes are too expensive. But if you every change you mind we love to proved our equipment solutions. Keep up the good work.

real nice!

Do you have any tips or advice on the precise location for the adjustable air holes please, and what size to make them? It's the only detail missing from your plans and I want to make sure I do them correctly. Thanks!

whats the size of the holes, and where do I have to put them? Thank you so much!!!

Thanks for sharing your design and results of your experiements.
