Pressure cooking agar in metal jars
    #18195645 - 05/01/13 05:45 AM (11 years, 20 days ago)

So I've been having trouble finding tempered jars in my location, so I started to consider whether or not it would be possible to pressure cook agar in a metal container. I've search and haven't seen anyone post about it other than how metal containers heat up fast and cool down fast. Even if that was the case, would that be that much of it issue. It would be worth it to not blow up another jar.

Interwebz?

I'm sure there are lots of Shroomery sponsors (and non sponsors) that would be glad to send you some jars.

I can't even begin to imagin where you live (or under what circumstances) that you can't find jars.

Do you mean "tapered" not "tempered"?

...sorry I should have edited rather than reply...

Only problem I see is rust and visibility and is it a heat worthy?.

As for the metal thing, something aluminium or tin would be heat-worthy right? They have plenty of those small little metal teapots over here which I would imagine would be great for using to pour out agar. I don't suspect it would burst in the pressure cooker either.

Living in rural Japan, so it is quite hard to find jars. Not to mention I can't find a Japanese site that sells the correct jars other than ones in the U.S., and I don't want to wait another two weeks for some jars. Also, I meant tempered. As in for heat.

No problem using a metal container . . . I am assuming the teapots have a lid on them.  I would be concerned about agar boiling out of the spout, though.

Any glass jar that you receive sealed with food in it should work for agar.

You can use any sort of container that doesn't melt.

Polypropylene (#5) plastic works.  Disposable tupperware containers are often made out of this.  You can also try your recycling center for an even cheaper source.

Metal cans are used all the time in the lab and work just fine.  Tin cans should work fine also.  If you get a decent can opener that cuts the side rather than the top you can find a lot of uses for free tin cans.

You also don't need any sort of fancy tempered glass.  Drinking glasses or common bottles will work just fine.

Do you drink liquer?  If so the solution is simple.  Go buy a bottle of whatever you like (don't buy cheap shit in plastic bottles) and get shloshed...  Then drill the lid and add ez-felt/sfd and walla you have yourself an agar bottle.

I just used a Bombay Sapphire bottle the other day for this purpose and it worked great.

You blew up a jar? How did you do that?

liquor bottles do work great :thumbup: its a plus because you also have like a spout where you can pour it from, instead of a gigantic opening
