WBS jars moist inside after PC?
    #19109337 - 11/09/13 07:45 AM (10 years, 2 months ago)

How moist are jars supposed to be inside after pressure cooking? The seeds went from obviously dry, to a dark brown color that shows it's moist.

I left them in the pressure cooker with the lid on after it was finished over night, so i had to shake up the seeds to loosen it up

As long as theres no obvious pooling on the bottom you should be fine. WBS should look dry and flowing but plump with moisture.

There's no pooling, however a small amount of seeds are stuck along the jar sides.. not a lot, but it's obvious from moister

Haven't nocc'd yet - worried it may be too wet. I dried the crap out of them after soaking with a blow dryer. Seeds are obviously moist and darker colored than when they were dry before PC.

Is there supposed to be some moisture?

This happens to me everytime i make WBS jars. i did some searching and found that it'll happen. just give the jars a good shake every few hours and let them sit. the water will absorb back into the grains and there will be no visible moisture in the jar.

Happens to me all the time too, I don't shake though, it just fixes itself in a day or two.

Don't worry about it. At least half of my grows have been like that and they've all been fine.

The seeds were maybe too wet when they went in the jars.
I've had this happen with rye berries once when I was evaporating the 
seeds after boiling I spread the seeds out thin hoping to dry them but 
they cooled down faster then they dried causing evaporation to stop.

Since then I've learned to evap the seeds in a pile which allows them to 
stay hot so they steam themselves completely dry to the touch, stirring 
the pile every 10 mins.

The heat from the PC will make the grains "sweat" a bit of moisture, so clumping is inevitable. As long as you can shake the jar up to loosen the grains you're fine.

Thanks for the tips. I shook them up and let it sit for a bit and they dried up.
3 days later and they're showing a small amount of myc growth :smile:
