HI How much gypsum if any for 24 hour soak ? And please don't waste time telling me popcorn sucks I find it easier than wbs and I love the smell of it simmering. If anyone has a good tek I would love to review it. Soak 24 hours simmer 45 - 60 min rinse Drain 45 min Steam with lid closed and holes covered with waterproof tape inoculate the next day. And I just wanted to thank every one for there help so far with other teks I'm sure it is tedious but is appreciated Thanks

Steaming grains, especially popcorn, is terrible practice that will lead to horrendous failure rates, unless steamed for 8 hours at a time.
Grains should be pressure cooked @ 15psi for no less than 90 minutes.
Yes you can add gypsum in the soak water, maybe a tablespoon or 2 per 20 quarts worth.

Steaming popcorn sounds like fail to me how many hours did you steam it for? The only time I managed to make popcorn work was when I upped my PC time to 2 hours. As for the gypsum I just eyeball a tablespoon or two and into the soak it goes.

Do your prep completely differently.
THrow your raw corn and a lot of water in your PC, not in jars or anything.
Bring it to 15 PSI for 30 minutes.
Drain, jar it up and PC for 90 minutes at 15 PSI.
If you wanna use gypsum, use it in the water you cook the corn in.
