Is it okay to add water to PC?
    #19366849 - 01/04/14 04:31 AM (10 years, 27 days ago)

When sterilising my grains my PC runs dry about 60minutes in. So I release all the pressure and add water and run it for 60 minutes again.

I have to have the heat on the lowest simmer possible to keep it wet.

So should I keep doing what I'm doing or should I run it on the lowest heat possible?

There's no gauges on my PC and I would hate for an entire batch to become contaminated

If it runs dry, it means your stove setting is too high.  When the weight starts to rattle, you're supposed to reduce the stove to the minimum setting which will maintain pressure.  You should NEVER dump the steam out or have to add water during the cycle.
