How do you seperate the juice from the paste? I used to use a brand new steralized nylon. The clear juice went to make the crust of the pizza and the paste went on top with oregno. Is the paste you are wanting to give the worms more like the skins and seeds? If so I would put it in containers in the refrigerator and put one in the bin every week covered with bedding.

Wow! That's a lot of paste! Can you can some of it for yourselves to use? I would freeze whatever the wormies can't eat within three weeks and then thaw and feed as needed. Listen closely to them after they eat it though they may be crooning "That's Amore!".
Those pickles sound really good too!

In spite of all the noise some people make about bins becoming acidic, my worms love tomatoes.

I don't have the freezer space to put excess waste wish I did.I cook the tomatos for 30 seconds in boiling water and shuck the skin and then use a blender to smash it up then strain it that and the skins is what I'm going to feed my worms.

I skinned and then froze several pound of tomatoes myself the other day. I took the excess juice, put it into a pitcher, filled a glass and then convinced my wife to start drinking...LOL

I see no reason to give worms stuff that is good for me...

I give them my garbage!!

I gotta learn how to make paste though. I came real close to buying a canning system the other day. Then I figured I'd just freeze what I grow.. Good plan unless the power goes out.

Proceed at your own risk.

Rinse and dry tomatoes
Cut out stem
Toss in blender
Pour into knee high
Hang from cabinet hooks
Put bowls underneath to catch
clear water
Use this as the liquid part to make pizza dough
All the worms get is the stems.
If my worm was named Charlie...
Sorry Charlie.

pjames, I don't know if you came up with that phrase, but if not, you should be very leery of anything marketted as a "canning system." Canning is pretty simple to learn (although it takes a lifetime to master) and requires very little equipment. Tomatoes don't even require a pressure cooker, although you should add acid to any low acid tomatoes you can to be on the safe side.

Hi All; Canning System sort of like boiling water, No exactly like boiling water. All you need to know is how long to boil and put lid on. Set to cool and cooling seals lid to jar. The prep of whatever you are canning is biomaterial specific. Tomatoes prep washing and stem removal.Skin removal by blanching. Stuff into jars either whole or cut up. Boil for time specific based on jar size.
You got canned tomatoes canned. If tomatoes are low acid variety put in lemon juice to bolster acid level. thats my system.
