Preparamos então um tutorial de como armazenar grãos dos mais diversos tipos em um objeto simples e encontrado em QUALQUER lugar… a garrafa PET. O ideal é armazenar alimentos em jarros de vidro, mas convenhamos, ninguém tem acesso fácil a grandes recipientes e ainda temos o inconveniente de serem extremamente frágeis.
