Did you try the steam dry? Takes like 10 minutes or so?

I've used WBS before that was a little on the moist side.  Always seems to me that the moisture gets reabsorbed or evaporates because a few days after I'd inoculate the jars, the grain would look fairly dry from the outside and the mycelium colonizes it just fine.

I lay down a clean bath towel on the counter and pour the colander of rye onto it.  Just moving it around a few times on the bath towel gets it nice and dry.  I've never had a rye jar contam.  It LOOKS dry, like even too dry, but never seems to be.

After your soak, rinse the grains. Boil water in a pot. Pour the grains into the boiling water, and remove from heat. Let sit for a minute or two, then dump everything into your strainer. The steam from the water will dry your grains. Just stir them around a few times, pulling the grains from the bottom to the top. They will be dry in around ten minutes.

thats what i normaly do
but i dont do the the 12hr soak

i boil water then drop grains in and let it sit for an hour or two
then i will bring to a boil again then strain and dry

but stupid me didnt turn the stove off the whole way and got about 20% busted
so i didnt boil it before i strained

stupid mistake on my behalf

no soak no simmer is much more simple and time efficient.

up you pc time
i use small 1/2pint jars so it will colonize faster before bacteria gets a chance
then i do some g2g on quart jars wich goes pretty fast two

i had 16 1/2 pints that i did and only use them for g2g
the ones i dont use i pop in the fridge till i make more quart jars
and so on and so on
works pretty good for me
