I posted the wrong picture, got the correct one up now
Also that stuff seems to be the agar drying out / crystalizing. Or perhaps it is the instant mash I used. :shrugs:

Looks good,
. Agar doesn't really dry out unless you messed with the moisture ratio. If it looks like this it's bacteria:

Sometimes I see the little bits of mashed potato in there along the edges, I think that might be what he means.

Nope. I had some plates which looked like that previously.
It just looks crystallized / dry at the very bottom in some areas. If it is bacteria, why is it only at the bottom and I wonder why they all have it?
I guess I'm not sterilizing it properly. Probably need a better pressure cooker. Sigh.

Is it hitting 15 PSI?
It's your potato flakes, don't worry about it. Bacteria is gross btw.

It kinda sounds like you're just talking about what the agar starts to look like as it's being digested. It turns a little different in consistency and starts to lose its color. Never thought of the word crystal or crystallize at all when looking at it myself though. If you're gonna use hyperbolic vocabulary and not give us a close up I can keep guessing all day though.

ha, they have happily made their way to rye berries which are happily moving to a toilet paper roll and muda bottles today.
I wanted to see if they would pin off the plates, but nothing yet. just a super network of mycelium.

Yeah, my surgical tape in the X pattern over the hole has stayed on through a few PC runs and washing with soapy water and I'm not running into any problems. The only thing I've been annoyed with is some of the lids/bottoms get warped or something and don't snap on anymore. No big deal though. They're cheap.

I actually find them easier to use once the lids stop snapping on. You just need to be a bit more careful picking them up. Also I never wash my lids anymore. I just wipe them off.

I don't even think I need to wash the cup itself either (provided there's no bac). I just fill with water, scoop it out with my finger, and it comes out clean. Agar is fun.
