What do you mean by pre-simmer?
Here's what happened exactly ...
1. Spores arrive on a relatively cold day, but spores not frozen. 2. I stick spores into freezer to avoid contamination not taking into consideration the expantion of water when going from a liquid to a solid. 3. A few of the 5 syringes, though I don't recall which specifically, popped open slightly. Not completely off, just a little at an angle. 4. Rinsed, pre-soaked rye grain for 48 hours, rinsed again. 5. Into 8 pint jars we go ... PC'd ... never really got to 15 psi ... let it hover at 14 for about 15 minutes. 6. Let jars cool for approximately 6-8 hours. 7. Divided 10 cc of PR's to 8 jars. From TLG. Know how they advertise DARK SYRINGES? bullshit. i could barely see anything. 8. Using a styrofoam box with a gallon jar. Two aquarium heaters one of which may not work. The working one is a 100 w heater. 9. It's been 7 days and no action yet ... at all.
I'm thinking ...
*of cutting squares of styrofoam to fit into the box, and then cut a circle to fit the gallon jar so that ...
1. there will be less air in the box ... less heat dispersion. 2. the jars will sit higher to the top of the box to utilize heat convection. i think that's what it's called ... when heat rises. anywho ...
any ideas or insights?

Well, I think your syringes will still be fine, probably anyway.
However, 15 min. at 14 PSI isn't even close to how long you should PC them, especially for eight pint jars. I would say at least 45 min to 1 hour at 15 PSI. Consider yourself lucky if they don't contaminate.
Also, TLG advertises dark syringes in their dark-days package, not for all syringes.

Hmm ... I see. Still ... I say false advertising. When i ordered the spores for experimental research they had pics of black syringes. Bs.

Neither did I slander your website for all to see, nor did I complain profusely about the product. When I ordered the 5-pack it had a little pic with five syringes arranged in a semi-circular. Though I have no way of proving it, and I really don't give a fuck anyway as this entire thread has strayed from intended topic, but the syringes were dark syringes. I've never heard anything about dark days or any other cute slogan you came up with. The only reason I said anything about this was because it's happened before with other sites. I apoligize if I hurt your feelings or any of your friends feelings as well. "It seems most understand the concept."
Was that necesary to prove your point or are you just trying to make me look like a fool so other people don't see my opinion as valid?
Or do you just feel superior when you attempt belittling people?
Try being curteous to customers who have a problem with your product. Instead of throwing an insult at me you could have come up with a solution as to where I could have mixed up pages that showed dark syringes .. and what I was actaully buying. I may have said, "Oh, sorry about that!" and continued to buy from TLG.
This is called "customer relations". It seems most understand the concept.

Greyhound has deals i believe ... though I'm not positive on the details ... there's some kind of two for one deal .. something like that .. they probably have a web site ... www.greyhound.com ... if you can get a ride down close to it ... or to louisville .. you could probably get a ride.
