Well my lot of 96 came today. I hadn't read all the way through or noticed the part about modifying lids until just now. :facepalm:  I've always used small short 4oz mason jars with the lid upside down. I know it won't be a hassle to mod the lids but I'm gonna try a run of them slightly cracked as aside from price, space, and weight being a factor I liked the idea of being able to have these laying around when not in use and not raising any questions. And just being able to use them for their intended purposes as well as for agar. I'll be sure to have plenty on hand for intended purpose with 96 though but if I can do a successful run without altering the lids I'll go that route. At worst I waste a lil agar and possible a small percentage of the rounds. I'll be sure to share how it goes.

Just had an idea.  What about taking te mini rounds filled with agar, and cracking the lid, and then placing them in another large container inside the pressure cooker.  This would not really be feasible for most, but I have an aa930. I'm still racking my brain for what. So far I've considered a really large pickle jar. Or maybe a small paint bucket or can?  I don't know.  Just a thought

Or would I be just as fine if I was to place te mini rounds in another larger pp5 Tupperware with a modded lid and just keep the mini round lids closed without modding the lid on those?  Something like this maybe?

the only thing that might work is if u wrap them in foil really well with the lid cracked.  with this though, u rsk steam penetrating the foil and watering down ur agar.  maybe try it will 4 of them, cause u have extra haha and then see if that works.

Check out the sterlite I just posted. Ya don't think if I threw them in something like that with lid closed?  Or even with lid cracked and negate the news for foil...

good question.  I'm not sure.  i once tried to pasteurize in a large pp5 5 gallon bucket, but the heat took SOOOOO long to get thru I actually took it out and put the sub in jars and re did it.  now that was not under pressure, so maybe it would work with the pressure.  i know the v tek uses plastic pp5s and the claim in that because it is plastic, the that transfers more quickly, resulting in less time had for sterilizing the grain.  u could try it, but like i said, only do four so that if it does not work, its not a big loss.

im not sure how u would go about it tho.

try one cycle with that, and once cycle with cracked lid completely wrapped in foil.  honestly, the lid mod is not that bad though...just line up 16-20 on ur table, light a small piece of nail and touch the lids (one hot nail can make a hole in about 8 containers IME) and then cover with micropore/poly.

Maybe I'll just try a few mini rounds like you said filled with water in the sterlite with lids closed. If that doesn't work at least i won't wast agar.  I hear ya on the lid mod not being a big deal but I'd much rather keep the lids in tact if possible.

if u do it, do it with agar in the PP5's so u know it got sterilized, otherwise u may just end up with unsterilized agar when u go to try the real run

If you crack the mini's and not the outside container i think it should work. If you crack both though steam is just going to make its way through all of it. Make sure the outer container is strong enough to withstand the pressure though :smile:

I know I should probably start another thread for this but since there are no results yet I thought I'd just put it here.

I inoculated 20 easy plates with ATL Galindoi spore prints (courtesy of Frank on a previous trade) I used two different methods. for 10 of them I used a inoculating loop / wire that got flamed, dragged through the agar, dragged on the print, then dragged back onto the agar. 

The other method I used was sterile Q-tips (sterile swabs)  I ripped open the swab package, swiped the print then swiped the agar.

I want to begin growing ONLY PS. Galindoi from now on.  I also have a long term goal of being able to bring my Air Pump tub ( https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/19370404 )to the table for fruiting a forest of Galindoi fruits.  Sclerotia come first of course though.

Though it's safe to say... Pasty Plates are the outline of my opus.

so I'm making another round of these now, and i just re read the OP because i forgot how long pasty suggested to PC them, and i noticed pasty, u only raise them with 2 rows of rings from bottom of PC!  damn, I have been placing three 1/2 pints under my pc rack raising them that much higher thinking thats what u had done to prevent boil over.  guess i don't have to do that anymore, and can fit more in there now!

I usually just raise them enough so they are out of the water. Since you are not PCing as long as you would for grains, less water is needed.

Myself and others take ours out as soon as PC unlocks from pressure. I throw them in my sab but I believe others just throw them on the counter.
