I'd use straight verm if I had some. :P I've been jobless for a while or I'd just buy verm. Landed a job recently so maybe in a while.

Alcohol lamp outside SAB
and alcohol spray the SAB beforehand, or soap works good too... but spraying is easier
there is still a risk though if you alcohol mist your SAB and bring in a red-hot inoculation loop haven't had problems yet though... maybe luck
I usually wait till most have evaporated, so I can look through the SAB
btw.. brown rice brown rice is hard to colonize likely, and you can't see contams easily/colonization easily that is why they add verm to it usually... it will be hard to get the moisture right too likely coffee is a recipe for contams usually unless you know what you do like one said
I would be using verm in a mix of brf and coffee + water wouldn't let mycellium try to colonize straight rice grains, would be hard to get moisture right
BRF mixed with water+verm has the moisture&texture right, you can feel it beforehand
but I have thought about this before, if you get lucky please make a tek BRF is very nutrious compared to i.e. grains it seems...

Whole brown rice alone has been used successfully many times. Not quite as easy as PF tek but if prepared properly works great: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/19351156#19351156

If you have potting soil or perlite laying around the house one of them could be used as a casing layer in a pinch.
