pasteurization question for casing

#8218372 - 03/31/08 07:10 AM (16 years, 19 days ago)

First off, Ive been searching the site and fungifun for like an hour and I havnt been able to find an exact answer for anything but poo, which im not using.

I have a pressure cooker that will hold about 3-4 half pints, its not very deep and would definitely not hold a big ol quart jar. But i dont even know if thats to be used. Im also using the 50/50 tek with verm/peat/oyster shell and lime if i can get it in time, but ive been told i can just use the oyster shell for now (right?)

Ok, the main question: What technique should I use to pasteurize my ingredients, and what of the ingredients will I pasteurize, and in what order if not all together at the same time. Obviously I would do vermiculite by itself because I plan to put a small layer of it on the bottom (i know its not NECESARRY but im going to anyways :shocked:

). Would I do the peat and the oyster/lime together?

Ive heard that I can PC these ingredients, Ive heard theres a way to straight microwave them, ive also heard you can just put them in a pot and boil them (if so what degrees, ive heard 175 F) If the pot method, do I need to buy some fancy ovenbag or just oldschool a pillowcase?

Muchos Gracias, Hongos Magicas. :mushroom2:

mix all ingredients, then you can pasteurize in a pillow case, bag, etc at 170 for an hour or you can sterilize it with your pc. tis up to you. different people will tell you to do different things (this info was pulled of the 50/50+ tek btw)
