Brown spots on all my cakes
    #22249573 - 09/17/15 05:08 AM (8 years, 4 months ago)

Noob here

I need some help here... I can't find any pictures with similar looking cakes

these brown spots are on ALL of them

some info:

these jars are a full QUART.

used Rice Flour and Vermiculite

everyone of them stalled for like 2 weeks... i loosened lids a bit more and turned upside down. they are almost full.

Could the browning be from the 2 week stall? or are all of the contams??

I bet they stalled because you left the foil on.  If you turned it upside down and it had a dry verm barrier, that's when you fucked it the rest of the way.  I would go ahead and toss those now.

I've never seen foil be the culprit to totally stall out a cake, no way is foil an airtight seal.

If your jars stalled and contam'd its because you used quart jars , 4x bigger than the tek calls for. Big PF jars stall out, thats why the little ones are used.

The mushroom speaks: '"I am old, older than thought in your species, which is itself fifty times older than your history. Though I have been on earth for ages I am from the stars. My home is no one planet, for many worlds scattered through the shining disc of the galaxy have conditions which allow my spores an opportunity for life... How the hypercommunication mode operates is a secret which will not be lightly given to man. But the means should be obvious: it is the occurrence of psilocybin and psilocin in the biosynthetic pathways of my living body that opens for me and my symbiots the vision screens to many worlds"

Oh god I didn't even see that, good catch.  Yeah that'll do it.  Foil doesn't help though, it can keep what should be the verm barrier moist, if there is one, and it needs to be bone dry to work.
