This could actually help me, Ive been having a weird problem - when I add an agar wedge to a grain jar then shake it up, half of the agar wedge gets stuck to the lid of the jar and no matter how hard I shake it just stays there with WBS stuck to it. I then have to let the jar colonize upside down. Its happened to me 4 of my last 10 tries. This method would certainly eliminate that problem.




A good solution for this is to tilt the jar before opening it and have all the grains at an angle. Then drop the wedge in the lowest portion of the jar. Then once the jar is closed, tilt it back so the grains bury the wedges. You will have grains all around the wedge, colonization will take place near the edge so you can have an idea how its progressing and you won't have to colonize your jars upside down :shrug:

That is a pretty good idea. I always just open the lid with one hand, drop the wedge in then close as quick as possible to reduce the chance of contams. Guess I should trust my SAB a little more.

You can still do it quick, just tilt the grains before you open the jar

My master jars are about 90% full so I can g2g as many jars as possible, that's probably my real problem.
