I'd like to hear an argument against what I'm saying:

Flaming in the box creates more turbulence but less air exchange with the outside.  The flame creates a pressure spike in the box that will force a small amount of air out, then suck it back in as the temperature drops again.  I highly doubt the amount of air exchanged in this process is anywhere near the air displacement of the volume of two human arms.  For each 1 deg C the lighter changes the air temperature, an expected displacement of ~1/300ths of the air volume in the box should occur, or .2qt per deg C in my airbox.  I would guess each human arm is around a quart, so the air temperature in the box would have to change by around 10 Celsius to create a similar displacement.  Based on PV=nRT.

Since the inside of the box is covered in bleach water/soapy water, there are few locations where mold spores can be resting, except already floating in the air.  Outside air that hasn't be sprayed with bleach water probably has significantly higher spore concentration.

If people want to oust/lysol/bleach an entire room and can really shut down any air movement in their house, that probably does make it absolutely better to flame outside.  However if there is air movement and you don't wanna get bleach all over your wood floors, cabinets, and food, I think there's an argument for limiting contact with the outside.

They're just plastic vegetable bags I slice the end off off and taped them around the holes.  They're a little bit floppy, but once my arms are in, there is very little airspace, and it would take an air current paralel in direction to my arms to cause a significant exchange with the air in the box IMO.  Because I don't work in an especially clean area, I think it's a solid idea and it works for me.  I just keep a lid on a small container of alcohol inside so the fumes don't build up inside the box.  I also wear tyvek sleeves to avoid bleach burns or skin particles falling in the box as easily.



re: my credibility, I don't have a lot, I just experiment and quickly discard tactics that don't work.  Just my opinion, but opinion not science is mostly what you will get on this specific topic.  I'd be curious if greenrabbit has done anything on this, his monotub analysis was impressive.

I've used v-tek, cased straight grains, pf tek for kicks, MSG 3 quart foil pans with CVG, tried grainwater coir.  I've made a lot of mistakes from experimenting and doing shit like g2ging an entire container, then pouring fresh grain back in to see if I could get more inoculant out of the scraps, then not noticing that contaminated a bit and screwing over many jars.  I've done plenty of stupid shit.  I like to see what I can get away with.  A lot of it failed, but I don't advise people to do it.  Flaming in my 60qt airbox has not caused my any problems that I'm aware of.  My syringes, poptop syringe inoculations, and cloning have all been relatively contam free.  I did get the best iso I've seen yet from doing something dumb though :smile:


--------------------


I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister.  I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave.  I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent.
Triggered yet?

:facepalm: why do you think this? It's called a still air box. Not a sterile box for a reason. The whole point is to have still air. The less air moving the better. That includes arms. G2ging with qt jars can even cause too much movement, and has ruined lots of peoples g2g. You want to have as little of a surface area moving around. Thus using bulky gloves or liners is just moving air around more. Wipe a slide with a sanitizer (note not considered a sterilizer) and see how many spores are left. It just looks like you moved them around.

It's a statistics game.  If the air inside the box has significantly reduced spore count from having bleach mist blasted through it,and the surfaces have been wiped down and subsequently sprayed, it stands to reason that most spores that come to rest on said bleachwater will not be simply agitated into the air again.  It could be plain water.  The concept is to get them out of the air, then keep'm down regardless of whether you kill them, yes?

It then stands to reason that the spore concentration present in the air in the box should be lower than it is outside where fine mist has not been passed through the air.

I also agree, less air movement is better.  The argument is whether it is better to exhange air with the outside or agetate the air inside, which would depend heavily on how much worse the outside air was.

I'm quite opposite lol. Don't even have sleeves or use sanitizer. Do it in a kitchen or living room. Just in a big ass 110 qt tub. Go soap and water! :smile:

As for the outside air. It is definitely dirty and it will still come in. It should however be still enough inside to fall to the ground. It takes a particle .5 microns at 5 feet high 45 minutes-an hour to fall to the ground. It's a lot better not to stir any air in there. Because particles will be all over and take awhile to settle again. Every millimeter squared has over 200 thousand spores on it. This is also why you NEVER have anything but your scalpel or needle go over open media. It's much better for air to be completely still for the best results. And still for a long ass time.
