Hmmm, maybe just inoculation technique- wait to see how this next round does. I'm sure you were using your glove/still air box and flame sterilizing- and you already had said that you felt you used too much on the last round.

How long has it been taking you to see growth? Since I fine tuned my methods I've consistently been seeing first signs of mycelium within 5 days(!). Full colonization has been around 2 2.5 weeks. Also I know this isn't really talked about a lot on here but I use an alcohol flame to sterilize my needle. You don't need to buy a burner- just flip a coffee mug (I /know/ you have a few of those laying around. I bet your girl usually has one with a bomb ass tea in it while she's making those gorgeous paintings) upside down and pour a little in the divot and light it with your lighter- this also frees up your other hand to take the foil off while you are flaming the needle.

It's weird because I made my brother a kit. And made him 1 jar and steam steralised it and it is doing amazing and it survived the trip to Toronto in the back of the car with my crazy ass driving brother lol wtf. He doesn't touch it tho it's easy for him to forget about the jar but he sends me pics and it's amazing. Bastard!  The best jar I make I have away. If it wasn't for bad luck...

you must be using your PC wrong then, jars that went through 90-120mins @15 psi and left untouched shouldn't grow nasty shit after a couple days..

I'm not that smart ok I'm usually drunk or baked I tried really hard my 1st time. But you know its like sex its all akward the first time and you prematurely pop haha.  I screwed em up. Many different ways. How i handled them where i kept them alot of factors. Not anymore this is my new hobby and I'm balls deep in it. I will not stop until I succeed !


Everything else I PC'd is fine. I think I screwed up on the WBS prep or something or I didn't PC that one rite. It was one of the first times I used the PC when I got it so.

I PC'd them last Thursday  all my newbs and the WBS  my PC doesn't have a pressure indicator so I don't know if it's 15 psi I just boil it until the pressure pin pops when steam comes out then I turn the dial to where the steam stops coming out.

does it say what psi/bar/kpasc it can do in the manual?
or maybe on the underside of the PC?

it makes a difference whether its 15 psi or 5 or 8.

and just to make sure, you do have something covering the whole in the lid of your wbs jar? its not an open hole right into the grains?

The picture says 80kpa working pressure. That's 11.6psi. :frown:
You're gonna have to cook longer, or get a better PC if you can.

Is the felt under the lid of that grain jar? Flip the lid the other way around, the filter should be on the top side so it doesn't get wet from the grains when shaking if the moisture content is off. You should be using the lid rubber seal down to actually create a seal with the glass anyway. Yes, when you flip the lids upside down they are easier to take off, but that also creates an imperfect seal giving a possible route for unfiltered GE to take place. Rubber side down forces the GE to take place at the filter.

when you say felt, do you refer to ez felt or that random christmas ornament thing you found at the thrift store?
get a proper filter, make sure the grains arent too wet going in the jars, PC 2,5 - 3 hrs for good measure and crack the lid and inoculate in a SAB.
