Correct pasteurization procedure???

So the other day I mixed up a bulk substrate of coir and verm. I planned on pasteurizing it in a bag in my microwave, so I took some 409 and paper towels and cleaned all the food and grease bits out the best that I could. Despite this, I am currently kicking myself over the fact that I forgot to spray lysol inside and outside the microwave before pasteurizing my bulk substrate. Should I be worried about contamination because of my forgetting to spray the lysol?

Fair enough, would using an oven bag and heating it up in an oven be more efficient?

A microwave has no place in mycology. Neither does your oven.
Pasteurize in jars in a water bath on your stove.
