Steamer?
    #13983552 - 02/18/11 09:02 AM (12 years, 11 months ago)

Hi guys quick question.

Would I be able to use a steamer instead of a pot/pressure cooker.

I will be working possibly with BRF

The steamer has a pot at the bottom where you fill it up with water. Then it has two other rows with holes in them for it to allow steam to escape which go above the pot. Then it has a cover for it.

I'm thinking this would work better with a pot.
What do you guys think?

Might work. Try it with a few jars and see.
Leave one jar unshot as a control sample.

125 mL jars are fun. :smile:

PC probably gets to 10, maybe 15 psi. Add 15-30 minutes if you like, the extra time will not cause trouble.
But do try the steamer as well, I think it might work.

Thanks Doc for the reply. So do I have to turn on my stove top on the highest number to get it to 10/15 psi?
Stove top dial goes from 1 - 8
I only purchased 1 syringe as im on a budget so I would like to make the most out of it. the first grow didn't go to well and i wasted $ and the syringe :frown: so this time around i would like to make copies of the syringe

Bring the PC up to full pressure on High, then turn it down.
You will use the lowest temperature that maintains full pressure. On my stove, it's a little less than 4.
Start timing when you get a stable temperature at the final heat setting.

A few cakes producing a few mushrooms gives you a lifetime supply of spores.
If your PC works ok, the best bet is agar work. It's easier and cheaper than it seems.
