Not many contams from pouring agar maybe 5 in 100 go bad. Contams on my agar happen when inoculations are made with some traded prints. The best advice i can give anyone is get/build a Good GloveBox.

I don't really wait to check for contams, because I don't usually get them on fresh plates. After my poured plates have been sitting around for months I sometimes get a few that go bad, but generally they are still good even then. Maybe my glove box is just that awesome?

I store my plates a room temp and maybe get one in 1000, maybe that contams, and if it does you can bet that a case of the butterfingers occurred while pouring. Any questionable plates are isolated in sandwich baggies for observation.

I don't check for contams either, just inoculate. Pour in front of flowhood and there's no need.

I'm curious if those users voting "other" in the first question didn't accept 68°F as a standard room temperature or keep them at higher temps.
also, which other agar formulas are used? I think I listed the common ones, lacking just PDYA and Saboraud.

Also, what about us who haven't done enough agar, but want to vote sometime in the future but still want to see results?

I casted a blank vote and you will now never know my opinion on the matter, because by the time I have one developed, this thread will be old news.
