Filtering rye with microspore tape

Hey everyone, I know I should eventually get synthetic filter discs or at the very least tyvek but I'm having an impossible time finding tyvek and I'm not in a rush to have more mycology gear come through customs when ordering online.
Has anyone had success using microspore tape as their filter when inoculating rye ?
Yes I used the search function already if you can find me a thread that answers this please link me to it.
Much love

Yes, it will work. Easy felt, poly-fill are also available to be used and are basically sold at every major chain or craft store.

I would go with EZ-felt or polyfill before I would even try microPORE (not spore) tape. I doubt it would work actually.

Roadkill says it on the "Let's Grow Mushrooms" DVD also, so I wouldn't get too down on yourself.

Most fungal spores range from 1 to 100 microns in size with many types between 2 and 20 microns.
A microporous material is a material containing pores with diameters less than 2 nm.
The nanometre was formerly known as the millimicrometre – or, more commonly, the millimicron for short – since it is 1/1000 of a micron (micrometre),

Micropore tape works in a pinch, but it's only good for one run.

I use micropore to attach my tyvek, micropore will hold up well under multiple PC's, but that is about all I would use it for. Buy a tyvek painting suit, you should get about 2,000 filters out of one and they cost fuck all.

After one PC run, the pore start getting bigger, so they don't keep the nasties out anymore.

But it's pretty easy just sticking a new little piece or two of tape over the hole again.

That would also hinder GE.

Not if you take the old tape off first, lol.
