can I reuse contam'd jars after I've sterilized them?
    #22252332 - 09/17/15 05:41 PM (8 years, 4 months ago)

My pressure cooker broke between batches of oats, and so I wasn't able to sterilize the grain jars I had just filled. I now have a working pressure cooker again, but my jars of unsterile spawn now have various contams because of being left out.

Question is; Can I just sterilize the contaminated jars and inoculate? Or do I really have to cook up new grain?

I'd make some new grains. Oats are cheap & I'd rather loose a dollar than have the jars end up bad.

It's always better to cook up new grain, man.  I'm not a scientist or whatever, but those jars have been exposed to contams.  Sure, you PC the jar and kill the germs, but you're still left with moldy, nasty rye.

The pc will kill it, and technically you can still use it. It's just lost some moisture, and a bunch of nutrients the molds ate that could have been potential mushroom food. Although they can provide some extra protein :lol:
