I still wouldn't trust it just on the simple fact you shit, piss, shower, and whatever else you do in there. Sterilize and sanitize as much as you want its still better in a living room or something, heck even use a closet if you want small space.

Ill agree that from a closet compared to a bathroom, there's probably less bacteria!

The higher the better, less chance for contams. Bathrooms and kitchens are the dumbest ideas ever, but if you are dumb enough to see otherwise and succeed then you know the rest of your apartment will work.
You really think your sofa and pillows aren't loaded with all kinds of spores and contams? You probably have quite a few electronic devices in your living room. Take a look inside and you'll see a big bunch of dust.
Bathroom on the other side, can be sprayed with bleach in almost no time.
I agree with you on the kitchen. It's the worst of both worlds plus there is food available for all kinds of contams.

FYI piss is sterile. I bet you have flushing toilet, so dump should be taken away as soon as you press the button. Remember that bathroom can be cleaned with solutions that are unsuitable for other parts of your house.

Use the still air box 
And I don't think you need to temp the jars if you're just boiling PF cakes in half pints.

no matter what you're gonna want a glove box..
Look its literally this simple..
Get a card board box or better and tape saran wrap over the top, put two holes in there, the size really dont even matter just make sure your arms fit, and make sure the holes arent that close, make it comfortable or you might stick yourself with the needle.. I did once before... all you need is the two arm holes, you can stick your jars in it through one of the holes, you can even spray lysol through the hole, it works for me everytime, but without a box thats 100% surface area of air on your shit...
as for temp, pressure cool at 15psi for 90-120 minutes, if your steaming im honestly not sure sorry.
I still say dont use the BR but whatever.

just boil your jars for 2 hours and let them cool to room temp for like 12 hours or something, you dont want your spores to die in that hot ass jar...

deathcore are responding to the crock pot that I will have to wait 12 hours?I decided to use old fashioned pot instead. is it okay if i put a rag underneath the pot(s)? ( i needed two for everything to fit)I put rag underneath for the glass not to break in the bottum, hope it doesnt bring any weird contams into jars...even though it should kill them anyways. will i be fine?

the towel will burn or get scorched sometimes.
a better method for steam sterilizing pf tek jars...
is to lay a layer of canning jar rings inside the pot...
then put a layer of alum foil down on top of that.
then lay another layer of canning jar rings down...
then fill the pot wit some water...
til the water gets to the bottom of the top layer of rings.
then just set your glasses or jars on top of the top layer of rings.
this method will keep the glass from breaking and keep your substrate from burning inside the bottom of your jars.

"If the temp goes over 165-170 for more than a few minutes, you will sterilize part of the substrate. It'd be best to toss it and try again. Since we spawn to bulk in open air, a partially sterilized substrate is just as shitty as an unpasteurized substrate."
WHAT? I dont undestand, so sterilizing is a bad idea?
will u quickly direct me to more specifics on how to sterilize? because my jars are cookin now. or is it really just as easy having ur water boil for an hour. and how long should i wait for jars to cool down?
