A question about PCing
    #6103803 - 09/26/06 03:13 PM (17 years, 5 months ago)

Hey Gents,

I've just got my Mirro 4qt (small I know, but I don't need a forest of mushrooms) PC and I'm wondering how long it needs to cool before I can remove the jars? I know no innoculating until they're cooled overnight, and I know it takes about an hour for the pressure to naturally go down, but I'm wondering how long it will take until the jars are cool enough to touch and put elsewhere for cooling.

Thanks!

Bare hands? Probably an hour or so. Also, you don't need to wait an entire hour for the pressure to be released. Normally it takes 10-15 minutes for the whistling to stop and that lets you know the pressure inside has equalized with the outside.

If you need to remove the jars while hot, to either shake grains or store them somewhere else, just use a towel or mitt to pick it up.

OK I just wanted to make sure it wouldn't explode or something on me :smile:

Yeah I can only fit like 4 or 5 1/2pints in there at a time, and I want to use about 10ish jars, so I don't want to be PCing for a week, lol.

Thanks for the reply Zathan!

The best place to cool the jars is inside the PC. I wouldn't recommend opening it until after the jars are cool. Removing them hot can cause the moisture to evaporate from the jars through the verm barrier or other filter. Wait until you can remove the jars with your bare hands.
