buy a 49 cent box of brown rice, through it in a blender for 5 minutes and there you go.. rice flour. thanx for the info on the way the substrate looks. (i blended 1/3 a cup of rice for maybe 4 minutes... it fluffed up to 1/2 a cup even when i packed it down...)

When I make flour I use a sifter to keep all of the big chunks from going into the jars. The big chunks are more easily contaminated especially if you are not using a pressure cooker.

Hey Joe, Don't trip man I'm in the same spot you are. I just inocculated my cakes yesterday. My substrate mix also looked pretty white and clumpy. I think that's how it's supposed to be. I bought my rice flour and it already was white, not brown. I even asked the guy,Is this BROWN rice flour or white? I thought my jars were gonna look brown too.[This message has been edited by mrjayman (edited April 12, 2000).]

The FP-tek innoculation photos at www.fanaticus.com show a jar filled only with dry vermiculite. Yes, grinded brown rice looks white.
If you want to prevent clumping of the substrate, first put the measured vermiculite to a bowl, add water, mix, and add the rice flour last, mixing it thoroughly.
This way the substrate is going to be very homogenous.
