So, ya not cooking the media seems the best idea in my head.
so I soaked coffee grounds for 24 hrs then pressed till field capacity. spawned 4 quarts to about 30 lbs of coffee.
I then accidentally spilled half of the contents on the ground for an out door experiment. so I was left with 15 lbs of coffee in a fabric like bag and I have it sitting and colonizing.
Now I'm soaking only a few cups of rye grain in a very high ph water. I am going to soak it for about 17-24 hrs. Then boil till hydrated, let cool and G2G with yellow oyster.
Also trying rye seed tonight just boiling in lime water then cooling and spawn. Will post with results and pics.

Interested to see results, I'm all for experimentation!

YEA I know would be awesome. I'll put it this way my RYE GRAIN and SEED from the 27th of Dec has yet to grow any mould... I'm still waiting to watch this mycelium colonize this new rye seed batch. So we will see , but the fact that my jars haven't developed contamination gets me real excited... I think playing with the ph levels a bit might help kick start growth. but I see this as an additive to help keep contams at bay for a longer time.. Even in a smaller dose might be very useful

Looks like bacterial contamination. Can you open a stalled jar and take a whiff and report back?

No, its not stalled. Just whispy from too much moisture. Yea you can open and smell theres all sorts of spores and crap in there just not growing..
So I open and took in a big oyster smell so we are good to go.. Groundbreaking stuff, so the next rye seed jars are colonizing.
Will post pics tomorrow...

Man, those two jars look stinky! You sure there's no bacterial contam? Any reason you made them so wet? Even when I pressure cooked my jars when they are that wet they almost always fail. Usually smells like dirty gym socks

well the rye seed didn't drain as well as I hoped so they are too wet.. but once again just trust I smelled them and visual inspected and I know its mycelium.. and to point out that its not bact or mould... my other test jars from 2 weeks ago haven't shown any contams no cobweb or anything..

not trying to poop on your party but...just because you can't see it doesn't mean it's not there. in fact, when there's uncolonized grain it may be because a contam present.

What made the grain so wet? Is this something you can remedy in the future or is that just how rye seed is? I've only used rye berries. Did you drain it directly after the boil? I think I read that the main purpose of boiling is so the excess water will evaporate off the grain.
Thanks for sharing this outside of the norm experiment. You go girl!!!!
