Please Look at these jars
    #21580794 - 04/22/15 04:03 PM (9 years, 28 days ago)

So I posted pictures of a couple of these jars and have been told that they are contaminated. Since I obviously have no idea what the f*&k I am looking for, please let me know if all four of these are toast. I'm going to be pretty pissed if I messed up all of my jars. The pictures show the first two, front then back, and then the next two, front and back. Last is all four in a row.

They look fine. Even if there is some minor bacteria, a soak in hydrogen peroxide will kill it off.

They look thick, but I don't see anything that looks like a contam..

Pins before 100% colonization is sometimes a sign of contamination. Yours is pinning near the top which is probably the oldest growth. They may have started pinning because they ran in to a barrier to growth, often contams, but since you used the tall jars, it may just be compacted and that's the barrier.

Lol its definitely bacteria buddy. I hate bacteria and had a problem with it for a while. 1 looks colonized and ready to go. If it were me and I was tired of waiting I'd have made more jars:P

Why are they upside down? Wouldn't that ruin the integrity of the verm layer? Also I guess you could maybe take off the bacteria and put it into fruiting but I've never done that... seems kinda sketchy imo. Hate bacteria too much to do that. The smell makes me literally gag

Half pint jars for the win...if pints were optimal everyone would use them, the reason people don't use them is because they are notorious for stalling, and the longer colonization is an obvious greater risk to contaminations. Also...next time please leave them right side up and follow the PF Tek by rr to a t....success is all but guaranteed if you stick to the plan.

Turning the jars upside down can help finish off stalled jars, especially the tall ones that don't seem to be colonizing the bottom.
