Haha, I've actually begged before cardboard sign and all, but not for coir . I'm just trying to think of ways to improve the hobby, it's really fun to experiment and see how it affects their growth.

Where I live homeless people sit off the side of the interstate exit ramps with cardboard signs that say will work for food or help need money

There's not a whole lot of microbial life in dried coir to worry about, which is why it does as well when sterilized as pasteurized.
As already said it's best to let it dry back out again, and then re pasteurize.
Coir is pretty contamination resistant for the reason that fungi spores have a hard time germinating on it. I've seen wet coir in a bucket for weeks that didn't mold, but I still couldn't bring myself to use it. I had the same coir doormat on my front porch for years and it got wet every time it rained yet I never saw mold.
Mushroom mycelium doesn't do well on non-heat-treated coir. I suspect it's more the 'cooking' process than the pasteurization process however. RR
