Next time take it to the sink and run cold water over it for a good 20 minutes. relieves the pressure.

Remember to label your misting bottles...it's not fun accidently spraying a casing with the 'strong bleach solution bottle that looks exactly the same as the water bottle'..hrmph.

Don't work when drunk.. making up a batch of PF style jars and forgetting to add the BRF so you end up cooking jars of vermiculite for an hour is timewasting :tongue:

Do not count warm up time when pressure cooking. 15 PSI for 50 minutes to an hour means just that. When the pressure weight bobbles, start your timer.

I have a feeling this may be why some get contaminated jars.

Get a pressure cooker with a gauge so you know exactly what the pressure is.

When cold shocking, you don't need to put cakes in the fridge, just freeze icepacks and put them into the terrarium.

If you wash your hands in a different room from your terrarium, open all doors between you and the terrarium before washing to avoid touching door handles, and try to use disposable paper towels to dry them.

Using a waterless hand sanitiser is not an acceptable substitute for washing your hands, as it doesn't remove the layer of grease on your hands that bacteria breed in.

Remember that sterile plastic gloves only remain sterile until you touch something that is not sterile.

When disposing of contaminated substrate, try to flush it down the toilet or securely seal it in a plastic bag; if you just chuck it in the bin, it'll stink to high heaven and may pose a health risk.

I disagree with this one completely. I had my first jars mycellium turning yellow and I thought it was a contam so I got rid of it. Later on I did a little research and found out that it was yellow because the myc was touching water droplets inside the jars and that contams don't grow right from the mycellium.

Here, I'll just modify it.

When in doubt, RESEARCH FIRST! Then throw it out.  :smile:

It'd be awesome if someone would set up a page with navigable sections to prevent fuck-ups. Sort of like a really big, general FAQ. That'd be cool.
And just to add my two cents.
Do your research heavily before starting. It can save you money and possibly your life (referring to pressure cooker incidents, getting caught because not keeping your mouth shut, etc. etc.)
