PCing problem? We were as sterile as possible and used a still air box. PCd for 90 mins with micropore tape over holrs and foil tight around lids. Upon removing foil tape was soaked. Other than that, used new syringes and needles. I dont get it.

Micropore tape doesn't block out anything. You should be layering up like 4 layers or just get a sfd, like most. Also I upped pc times to 2 hours with a noticeable difference. It wouldn't hurt to increase pc times.

That sucks dude. If they were a little more colonized I might recommend trying to save the myc. If those are already smelling, they're not gonna colonize any larger than what you got now. Toss em 
I've ran into this issue a lot and have experimented with ways to stop it. Soaking my grains for 24hrs and getting a larger PC (so I can leave heat on high and don't have to worry about evaporation) has greatly helped.
