Ha that pressure cooker mod is awesome! Really dangerous for someone not mechanically inclined but cool never the less.
Your chart is for cooking at sea level yeah? Might need to increase some of the times if you live high altitude.

The sterilization times are the same in high altitude, it just takes more heat/time to get to your desired pressure than at sea level

I swear the United states government does more to protect free speech than some moderators on this site:
My autoclave Tek has been removed by prisoner#1 his stated reason was "it is dangerous"
Lol even RR claimed I made a bomb but still left the thread up so people can make their own decisions
The following is the rating I left him after he refused to expand on his reasoning for his actions
"I would give him ZERO SHROOMS but I'm not a dick. He took down a thread I posted that was over a year old because he didn't agree with it, says it's dangerous. He did keep up several threads on BHO, LSD, and METHAMPHETAMINE production that HAVE HURT THOUSANDS Your a moderator, moderate not dictate. I've said it before and I'll say it again, I may not agree with your opinion, but I'll defend to death your right to express it.
EDIT: Nevermind I am rating you zero, this has nothing to do with my karma. Aside from this situation he's generally a good Shroomer and ok mod"

I don't mind people flaming/bashing for my ideas but straight out censorship leaves a bad taste in my mouth that makes me want to forget this site and keep my ideas to myself instead of letting this community make their own decisions.
I'm done ranting back to topic (if this thread doesn't get deleted or I'm not banned)
I will rewrite the Tek on a different site and link it to my sig soon

I am not going to lie. I personally requested via the report button the removal of the thread. Because it is dangerous. Because of all the Tek's on this website, this one introduces the potential for catastrophic damage to health AND property.
It has nothing to do with free speech, after all this is a private forum. The mods reserve the right.
Its plain and simple. That tek simply was dangerous to EVERYONE who did it. It has nothing to do with ignorance or understanding of the dynamics of High pressure steam. It does not matter how much you think you understand HPS, because anyone with any scruples who remotely appreciates steam would not do it and advise against it.
The other issue I presented in my report was that WHEN someone blows themselves up, and the police get involved and it gets traced back to this forum/your thread.....Most likely nothing would happen legally, but I am certain that there would be police activity. They will want to know where some dude growing (most likely illegal) mushrooms got the hair-brained idea to make a pc into a bomb.
Do you even realize that IF a PC explodes and the police show up, there may be a pile of charges levied against the owner of the pressure-bomb. After the boston marathon incident, they will be more than happy to treat you like a terrorist until you divulge the real nature of your mod. "Oh I didn't want to destroy anyone, just wanted to save a half hour of cooking grain for my magic mushrooms"
A tek like that is only inviting disaster to anyone who does it, and to this forum and its users.
I did ask in the other thread:
Willsolvern: How would you feel if someone posted that they were burned horribly/hurt badly when they did your "mod". I have had 3rd degree burns on a decent percentage of my body one time. Google "Debridement" and ask yourself if you would like dead skin wiped off your body with a stainless steel wire brush. They did my whole arm in one day without pain pills. It is not a joke.
The lack of respect and understanding of steam just simply astounds me. You and your teks are not to be trusted based on your obvious lack of comprehension of basic physics.

It was wrong to give pris a zero rating for doing thankless, unpaid moderator work. Someone hit the notify button and he was online so he responded. We have to be free to use our judgement. RR

dam dude thats bull i cant stand people now and days ...yall better get rid of your hot water heaters and your electricity oh dont forget your gas lines and radiator heaters hell lets just go back to the stone age ... wait they got knives ..... if you dont understand something dont fuck with it learn about it then learn some more then fuck with it i know more people who have burned there kitchen up trying butane extract on bud lets get rid of that ... if people dont have a way to learn the correct way to do it some noob is gona try it with out some one saying hey you want steel never do with aluminium (thats bull shit by the way ...)but still .... there is teks to make a pc on here lets get rid of those tell RR your gona remove his shit 55gallon drum steam boiler

That's your opinion, you have the right to it. Although we don't agree that was ridiculous. Please keep your space from my threads in the future.
Your reaching, very far to validate yourself, this tells me your feeling a little guilty for your actions. I forgive you but I'm still upset.
@RR I did not know it was reported until now, I'll remove my negative rating, but he could have done more to explain the situation (just like you did in one simple sentence) instead of ignoring me
@RR the blowout plug will depressurize the vessel safely if left to fail

@Gr13nMushDude
I appreciate you standing up for me.
Let's not worry and get back to the subject on hand. I'm really not that mad, just wish I could have copied the information before it was deleted.
I publicly apologize to prisoner#1 for jumping to conclusion. I didn't know the thread had been reported by a fellow Shroomer.
That being said let's get back to sharing knowledge

All of your mentioned items summarize what camp you hail from. All of the things you point out come with a number of redundant safety mechanisms from the factory (just like a pressure cooker)
I would tell someone the same exact thing (basically) if they were to disable things like the blow off valve on the water heater, or breaking off ground plugs and using incorrect breakers etc. My radiators run @ 1psi steam in the winter. Again, there are a number of redundant checks and balances that keep us safe (blow off valves etc). If you have an gas appliance, it has a pilot light.....if it goes out, the gas will shut off.
These are called integrated safety features. Disabling ANY safety item is stupid.
That steam boiler of RRs runs @ one psi. If you noticed how much REAL work was put into it. Show me one place where he does not have enough safety mechanisms. I did not see one thought of his that involved RTV silicone and ball valves to instead of blow off valves to up the pressure. Comparing a 1psi steam boiler to the increase of volume in a pc to an autoclave ARE 2 totally different things.
Gr13:
You obviously have no mechanical knowledge. I won't judge you for that. You seem to be more interested in complaining about things you don't understand than using common sense. I requested the removal of the thread so that people of your mechanical disposition would not be given any fodder to "try something new".
IT IS DANGEROUS TO DISABLE ANY INTEGRATED SAFETY MECHANISM. IT CERTAINLY IS AGAINST THE MANUFACTURERS WARNING, AND WILL EVENTUALLY FAIL CATASTROPHICALLY.
This applies to ALL THINGS that have a safety mechanism.

For the record, that depends on the BTU rating of your stove. The blowout plug has a fairly small opening and can only release so much steam. In addition, they're made from rubber which tends to get stiff and brittle over time. Yours should have blown before the gauge read 30 lbs.
There should always be at least two means of overpressure control in the event that one of them fails. My 55 gallon drum boiler has three means of overpressure control for added safety. RR

No safety device was disabled, I would reference the Tek to prove this, but your actions removed that possibility.
I will not ask again, let's get back on topic

Bud, you made it clear that you don't have a clue about how steam works. Ill tell it to you like this. I work with HPS every day in power plants. I am dealing with a few hundred pounds of pressure OR MORE going through double xtra heavy wall 9 chrome alloy. I have over a decade of experience. I am highly overqualified to do the work I do. I have certifications for things that I guarantee you cannot imagine.
We have saftey meetings daily, and the one thing that is always stressed:
If we even have ONE injury, this whole process is a waste. ONE Injury make a project a failure. It does not matter about speed and accuracy.
All it takes is one person to get hurt by Will's explosive PC mod, and the potential is very real.

Once the seal on the vessel has been broke (popping the blowout plug) it will no longer create positive pressure. I agree triple redundancy is preferred, this system does rely on a very observant operator.
If you will see in the Tek I replaced the blowout and other fittings recently and are replaced every few months even if in good condition.

A ball valve used in place of the rocker is one example. The rocker is one of up to 3 redundant safety mechanisms that are built into every pc. This is one example of a disabled safety mechanism.

Thank you for your input, would have been better served under the Tek thread. Now it's being rewritten as a journal and you now loose the ability to voice your concerns in a proper fashion. Good job 
The Tek will live on without you

Its not a tek, its a disaster waiting to happen. I hope you don't hurt yourself. Im blocking you now only because I have effectively wasted time and intelligence in what seems to be a one sided issue. You are wrong, plain and simple. Do what you do for yourself by yourself. Don't give more people with your lack of understanding bad ideas that are potentially deadly.

Find me another way to hold a vacuum upon cooking and I'll take it into consideration.
The rocker was not replaced with a ball valve, I would point you to the Tek, but you know how self appointed policing goes
