your water should be cool to avoid bacteria while dunking but if you are dunking cakes then 24hrs. it takes a while to force water into the myc network if fully submerged, longer if floating on the surface.

Have you ever had to do a second dunk to rehydrate cakes? Since they have been dunked 24hrs before already, can you get away with a 12hr second dunk?

yeah that's fine, always rinse after though. when you dunk a cake it should feel like holding a cup of water.

That's what I've done before, and just recently recommended, but wanted to see what ya'll had to say. I don't know if it's true but doing a second dunk for 24hrs more just seems like an over do.

Ok so another question.
I had sort of a little panic attack, I looked at one of the jars next to my sterilized qts growing mycelium, and this one is just FILTHY. Mold, black, green, fuzzy, whatever. The whole 9 yards. Wtf. But then I realize I didn't PC that jar and forgot to put it in the fridge with the other jars of prepped oats that I didn't get to PC right away.
Question that this makes me ask is are the jars I've kept in the fridge going to be ok to PC? They have been in there since the 20th. Or am I going to have contamination issues because I let them sit unsterilized for too long like the one I didn't refrigerate?

Ok. I was thinking that by dunking a total of 48hrs would be too long, and that it could cause cakes to become water-logged.

dunk as long as is needed, 24 hours should cut the mustard though.

Ok, cool. I don't even know how cakes become "water-logged". Is that a myth now? How do they?

waterlogged by staying too wet for too long, they need evaporation to pin, no evaporation from too much water and no pinning
