Kashi 7 Whole Grain Pilaf Sides...
    #8927891 - 09/14/08 09:45 AM (15 years, 6 months ago)

This is a NEW product...Ready to serve out of the bag...I'm experimenting with it now...About $2.40 gets you a pint of ready to use substrate...

So far it seems to be performing well...Just did a G2G transfer the other day...

Here are the issues I'm working on...

Seems a little dry for G2G...But a syringe inoculation might solve that...

Although I assume it's sterile in the bag, I still PC'd for about 20 minutes, just in case...Not sure that was necessary...

It's kinda pricey...But not bad when you consider it's ready to use and doesn't SEEM to need any of the typical additives you need when doing grain jars from scratch...

All this is preliminary information...Was hoping some folks out there would start experimenting and add to it...

Are you doing this just for experimenting.. Cause cost wise grab some rye berries or some popcorn like 3 bucks for a 1 or 2 pound bag of popcorn..  I bought 50lbs of popcorn for 15.99 at sams..

I wouldn't assume a food product is sterile out of the bag, unless it says so...

Definitely PC.

Always good to see people tryng different things, if it seems a little dry you could always hydrate it a little.

I would recommend popcorn, while it is cheap and people have had success with it. Its not the best choice due to high endospore count.

It's an experiment...

As for "sterile"...I probably should have said that most spores and bacteria where dealt with during processing...20 minutes gave me jars that I BELIEVE will not contam...Time will tell...

I agree with the popcorn thing but I couldn't pass up a 50lb bag for 15 bucks..  Just need to soak simmer and pc it properly so far out of  about 20-24 jars I have lost 2 to trich.. At least thats what it looked like..

I agree on the popcorn...Although I've had pretty good luck with it in the past...I just saw this product and said...

Hey...Why not???

Only problem there is the stores in my area do not carry any form of agar agar.. So I was just thinking about getting some of this..

I have one more store to try it's a market area that carries rye berries and some health food stuff but I am not sure if they will carry agar..

OK...Let's not Hi-Jack this thread...Cus I want to keep it for info on the intended purpose...But if you have an Asian market around you can get agar for pennies, as opposed to the steep price you will pay at the health food stores...

I said let's NOT...It was a pre-emptive strike...Funny way to treat someone who's trying to help you though...
