Gas exchange?
    #14020860 - 02/24/11 04:23 PM (13 years, 9 days ago)

Hi, im not having any problems at the moment, but i have been seeing people saying gas exchange is very important, my jars are moving along pretty well, it has been 24 days since inoculation, i used a layer of foil as the lid, injected 4 holes in the corners, then covered it with another layer of foil , pretty tight along the edges , ( was nervous about contaminations) I had put a dry layer of verm on top of the cakes, but i think it got kinda moist from the vapors when i sterilized in boiling water, am i getting enough gas exchange? should i take the top layer of foil off even though the "dry" verm layer is semi moist? Again i dont see any problems/contaminations, just dont wanna ruin it somehow with noe GE

You're using foil as your lid?  May I ask why the hell you're doing that?
Last time I checked all canning jars came with lids.  Or if not, lids are a couple of bucks.

Take the top foil layer off if you can remove it without disturbing your "lid".  If you can't maybe just poke holes in the top layer of foil as well...be careful though, you don't want to disturb your dry verm layer.
Your verm layer shouldn't be moist from sterilization vapors...

If they dont stall they are fine if they seen to stall try opening it up a little and sometiomes it will explode into growth.  Be patient, your fine.

Well things don't always look as they are and things can be misread and mistaken for what they realy are so don't read too much into what I say since I might be mistaken myself. And remember I rarely ever give a definate answer.

:facepalm: It's from that PF Tek for Simple Minds page...

Next time, invest in jars. Also, remove the foil.

Don't use incubators. An incubator is for contamination as brothels are for STDs. Sure you get sex, but is it worth it? :shrug:

Couldn't find a jar that was suitable , tin foil is fine if my jars are almost 100%... was just making sure of the gas exchange , so I should keep it closed up if they are doing fine?
