ready to birth, casing question?

#2328082 - 02/12/04 08:51 PM (17 years, 21 days ago)

My friend is ready to birth his jars. He wants to case them and has a few questions. This is what he wants to do. He wants to add a layer of moist vermiculite to the bottom of a casing tray about 1/2 inch thick. Then he wants to add his crumbeled substrait. For his casing layer he is thinking of using a mix of vermiculite and oyster shells.

First of all, is his proposal acceptible?
Second, how should he sterilize the casing material?
Third, what is the procedure for cold shocking, and is it recomended?

put casing in a gallon ziplock and put in a large pot siting on a wire rack just above the water, the wire rack is a bent up coat hanger. put top on pot and boil for 1.5 hours.
