drats.. I almost forgot it the other day; had the cooker loaded then had to unpack and wrap.. I kept 2nd guessing myself then though because I was already being unorthodox by my use of buckwheat flour..
Did it botch the jars from what you can tell thusfar?
Also, random question, Do you flip the lids unside-down for pf tek? (rubber up?)

Just make a proper jar in the 1st place, They are used for many things in this hobby. It not too hard to make em, then you wont have to worry about dry verm layer. Which can give you more room for sub and bigger cakes. Also easier to do transfers.

I've got profound respect for Psylocybe Fanaticus and his trailblazing; And it is true that sticking to the "T" of the Tek does pay off but sometimes the journey itself is the fun.. Where'd individual experimentation go; where my alchemists at!?!

right on, well keep me updated on how it goes. did you use just normal WBS or did you grind it up to "flour".. Also which brand/ type of seed feed you using?
I wanted to do that, but didnt have any of that either. I the rest I had to the birds when I moved outta my last place.. Bird feed feeding birds, what a thought ..

I always used foil,just so that no extra water gets into the jars and no moisture escapes the jars....considering your moisture content in the jars is correct.

Tyvek blocks most if not all of the water from entering the jars (the types of tyvek I've used at least) More often than not I just screw a big tyvek square between the band and lid and PC without foil.
Foil does help with rust though, the less often you don't put foil on, the quicker your jar lids will start to rust. Rust doesn't really hurt anything though.
The only thing you have to worry about is if whatever you used to seal your tyvek to the jars had a leak in it.
