G2G soon after pc, is it ok?

I pressure cooked my grains this morning and left for around 8 hours for work. when i came home the pressure gauge was at zero and the pc seemed quite cool although when i opened it up there was still a little steam and then grain jars were quite warm, due to this there is a bit of condensation on the inside of the jar.
so would it be ok to G2G them tonight or maybe wait till tomorrow when the grains are a little more dry?
cheers

Wait until the jars reach room temperature before you inoculate them. Inoculating them too fresh from being sterilized can cause damage to your inoculant from the medium being too hot.

Thanks for the advice they are more than cool now though as i stated there is still quite alot of moisture in the jar, so do you think i would be ok with doing a Grain to Grain transfer tonight?

I do. The heavy moisture content is from the grain being too moist upon being loaded into their jars for sterilization or from opening the PC too soon , while the grains were too hot, causing them to puke out some of their moisture.
From the way you describe the moisture content of your grains, you should be ok. A pic would better help diagnose your jar's moisture content. Next time, wait the full 24 hours before opening your PC after the sterilization cycle to retrieve your grain jars for inoculation.

use your best judgment, I always like things to be on the dry side,
Too wet and you'll get slow growth and probably some bacteria and maybe a stall.

I have been waiting overnight for the jars to cool. No problems to date.
