    THE Brinsea Octagon 20 Eco Thread; Hatches, etc. (PICS)

    I would think you could very easily use something else. Those little dollar store plastic baskets with holes drilled in the bottom for ventilation, craft plastic mesh made into a basket, or even ordering a new tray from Brinsea are the ideas I have right off the bat. I think the key would be...

    THE Brinsea Octagon 20 Eco Thread; Hatches, etc. (PICS)

    I use a bleach solution, soak my felt and sponges, spray out the bator holding it over the sink, then with my rag, squeeze some bleach water into the wells, wipe it out and let it dry without rinsing. I take apart the lid and wipe what I can with bleach and use a q tip to get the fuzz out of the...

Although last year was my first, I felt like the brinsea used a lot of water. I had to refill daily during lockdown to keep my...

    I have the 20 eco. For lockdown, I filled both wells. I had the best luck raising humidity with felt pieces. I put the edge in the water wells and folded it to lay under the tray. At lock down, I used a syringe to drip water into the well from the vent, or very quickly removed the lid and poured...
