This looked like it could be handy so I grabbed it from the dollar store. It's a spray bottle with a fan built in!

Let the beautiful process begin!
Did you happen to mix the brf and Verm before or after bringing the Verm up to field capacity? (May just be the lighting)

I would be careful using those reusable blue rubber gloves. I used them for a while and ended up getting more contams than you can imagine. Probably because after a while the rubber has microtears than can catch contams and the alcohol has a hard time getting in there. Plus my sterile tek wasn't perfect. When I went back to using disposable latex gloves the contams went away.

Rye berries, rye berries, rye berries. You said you are willing to make this your full time hobby. Go with rye berries. For me, they are a bitch to find under a $1.20 a lb, but they are worth the cost. I started out with using wild bird seed and I would not recommend starting with that spawn to anyone. i have tried it and the inconsistency in the bird seed is ehhh... annoying.

Also, maybe I'm just picky but I would remove that plastic stuff around the holes of your SAB. The plastic obviously isn't sterile and your hands have to touch it as they enter the SAB. There's not much movement inside a SAB anyways so I don't see a need for it. I just use a bin with 2 arm holes.
edit: and it would be pretty difficult to pass a red hot scalpel or needle through that entrance without melting the plastic

whole oats $0.33 per pound at a livestock feed store. super easy to use, clean, and cheap as hell. look up some of the whole oat teks and you'll fall in love.

I can't find a PC big enough for a good price. There's a 6 qt on sale but is small I can't fit what I want unless I can do these mini casings.

Lmao u have no idea how frustrating my SAB design is I probably do more harm than good because everytime I try to get my hands in and out it makes wind and ya I doubt the plastic is sterile hahah my hands barely fit through imagine me nocking up 12 jars with 3 diff syringes and having to flame em omg shenanagins I'm rippin. The plastic off lol not goin through that again with my 12 new jars

I think I went overkill trying to be sterile but if I get hardly any contams it was worth it. Only time will tell. I'm gonna let my girl nock the next 12 to see if there's any difference in our tek
