using my pc for hpoo

Every search I bring up always calls to pasteurize with jars. Can I use the bags instead and pc normally?

You want to make spawn bags, to pasteurize hpoo is making it a bulk substrate for spawning to.

But use them as spawnbags, don't use the sterilized sub as bulk substrate.

Or if you don't want to use spawn bags, you can pasteurize the hpoo in pillow cases with your PC full of water if it's large enough. I've looked into using bags, and the only way I'd probably use them if I was pasteurizing in the oven. I just did my first hpoo/straw + additives pasteurization last week using the pillow case and stockpot method, but my self-regulating burner made it really difficult for me to keep the water temperature consistent. The monotub I put the sub in is doing extremely well, however.
I'm starting to think the best route is to first get the mixed sub's water content perfect, and throw it in sealed oven bags. Then just put them in the oven at 170*F for an hour and a half. I'd probably check the core temp to make sure it got up to 170 throughout.
If you just use the PC straight out, you'll sterilize it instead of pasteurize it, which could end badly if you're doing a monotub or similar. Like those guys said, it would work great if you do spawn bags with it though.

Sterilized poo is fine providing you keep it in sterile conditions. If you want to spawn in open air you must pasteurize. I like to mix grain and poo in jar or container, sterilize, inoculate and fruit when colonized. The jars in my sig were done that way.

What advantages and disadvantages are there for that grain/poo jar technique?

Well I have a crap load of bags(no pun intended) and I did a couple of bags last night just to see how it went. And I'm just worried about the condensation on the inside of the bags.
I'm trying to get away from jars. Used to do 30+ and now I can do 3 or 4 bags and be good to go. also I can get hpoo for free and wanted to extend my grain so I save money on that front.

Wait, how much are you paying for grain? At WalMart I buy 20lb for about $6

Is that the biggest bag of wbs? It's much more where I am. I buy the biggest bag in the store and it's around 20. I'm using the spawn bags and can do a hole bag now.
I used to just inoculate my grain and fruit with nothing added. But with my free supply of hpoo I can make my grain go the distance.

Yeah I guess if grain is that expensive in your parts, hpoo is the call for sure. I really like doing straw/hpoo as it is because mushies just love it! In my local Walmart, they have these big white and red bags of grain. I had to puncture the bag in the store to see if it was the right blend. Turned out, it was perfect. There was tons of millet, wheat, nuts, and hardly any sunflower seeds! I was so excited to see that. I'll send you a photo of what the bag looks like. I feel like a lot of Walmarts would carry similar brands and such, but maybe not...
