Gas Exchange holes
    #19387498 - 01/08/14 11:11 AM (10 years, 1 month ago)

I just wanted to ask what size GE hole would be best for MS ATL#7 Jars to give proper GE and to keep the grains from drying while the myc slowly colonizes the grain? I know the question has been asked thousands of times but I see so many different answers 1/8 3-4 1/16in holes but I only want to make 1 hole for GE and have a silicon IP so what would you guys do.

Just about anything will work, honestly. I'd go with smaller holes with ATL#7 just because they'll be sitting for a long time.

Re: Gas Exchange holes [Re: tripdawg420]
    #19393486 - 01/09/14 12:21 PM (10 years, 1 month ago)

yesterday I made some more jar lids for my next batch of spawn and for a few of them I used 1/8in but after looking at it I started worrying that the hole was to small for proper GE so the next lids I moved up 1 small size difference each lid to test it to see if theirs any difference in growth and hydration of grains over time.

I plan to make a silicon IP with a hole maybe 1/4in and paste a coin cut SFD with silicon over the GE hole.

Since the GE hole is so small I don't think I'll be able to properly glue it to the lid like I did all the other jar lids I made in the past by placing silicon around the GE hole and pressing the SFD down onto it until the silicon runs out into the GE hole making an all around seal and whipping as much silicon out of the hole as possible.

Does anyone have any information on using such a small hole and how to properly seal it to the cap with no air pockets or anything else I need to know that could help me?

Just make a ring of silicone and pop an SFD on it.

The size of the hole should matter little at this point.

As long as the filter is big enough to cover it you should be all good.

Thanks a lot hacker for all your help here, I'm just hoping that the smaller hole will hold the moisture in the grain long enough for the myc to gain a good foothold and at least cover the top inch or so of grain in the jar and hopefully everything below that will hold it's moisture.

Is this possible or are dry grains inevitable and do you regularly use a 1/8in GE hole for all your jars?

Did you really do a 100 jar run?  And if so,why so much. Isn't that a lot to handle

Not much, really. They'd be high all the time. I ate them every day for a month, then a bit down the line ate acid every day for about 6 months.
