Since switching to bags, no.

I proposed a plan to isolate and rule things out above but didn't receive any feedback.

To isolate the issue I'm going to pc 2 bags. One I will false inoculate and tie up and the other I will immediately seal when I pull out of the pc. If neither contaminate then it is how/what I am making my LI with. If the false innoc one contams then my hood/technique is at fault, if both contaminate then my pc time is not long enough.


Does this sound correct?

Have you left some grain uninoculated for the same time your grains take to colonize? That will be the only way to rule that out.




Sterilize some bags and leave them out for a spawn run. Don't inoculate them. If they contaminate before 2-3 weeks then you're not PCing long enough. Pasty answered that.

Of course I did :lol:

I think he's saying even if it's sealed it will leak in.

BW does that look like good sterilization times to you? I know you do a lot of bags too.

Ask trip,

I don't use bags. I think it's in your spawn honestly.

I'm 100% positive its my spawn. The question is if its incomplete sterilization, dirty culture, or faulty hood work.

As in after I make the LI, yes.

Also seem to have the one flush issue when just using wedges as well. I thought maybe PC time since the contam seems to take its time manifesting. Maybe I juuussstttt about killed it and it takes that long to recover and present itself.

I guess the only way to be certain is run the control test I stated.

Post a pic of what you would consider a clean plate and clean spawn. Do a jar run and leave some uninoculated. Don't even open them. See what they look like in a few weeks.

I would also suggest you run some muda bottles. They can teach a lot about your grain prep. Even if you don't fruit them you can learn things.

Keep in mind that some cultures may only be good for one flush. I have a culture that is only good for one or two at most but I get 150% BE with it so its worth it. If I get two dry oz or more per quart of spawn used first flush, I really don't care if I see a second.

Op, your issue is cross-contamination in your procedures of the step of inoculating of your sterile grain mediums.  If your issue was dirty inoculm, and, or your sterilizer wasn't sterilizing properly, contamination would show up within 2-3 days. 

IF you feel like your sterilizer isn't sterilizing properly, you can order indicator test strips that you run through the sterilizer with your grainmasters.  The test strips won't tell you how long the 15psi was sustained for, but they will indicate if 15 psi is even being achieved by your PC.
