Whats the idea of plywood? With a screen on top? The wood helps absorving the moisture?

Sorry, I was making a cheap joke about inflation, not trying to talk down about your technique. It does sound like a good option.

Yea the water just runs off and you can spread it out thin in the sun and wind. Also the pooling is absorbed.

This is the one I got https://www.homedepot.com/p/1-5-in-x-4-ft-x-8-ft-Hardwood-Plywood-Underlayment-Specialty-Panel-431178/203183010

Thanks.  I went ahead and harvested them, which turned out to be a good move since my dehydrator probably couldn't handle any more. 

One thing I did not expect with APEs is how much odor they put out while dehydrating.  I get a slightly noticeable smell near the dehydrator from other cubes.  But these APEs, good lord.  My whole place smells like a dirty hobbit's gym locker.

pvc isn't very strong anyway. You could weld up something like that out of steel for a few hundy. Maybe not in an apartment though.

I was in your boat a while back... the smell of grains was strong... filled the hallways...

Now I am a believer in birdseed/millet. No boiling to hydrate. No drying on racks. Easier to explain to neighbors why you have sacks of the shit.

Just saying... I'm so glad not to dry my grains anymore.

I know BRF tek can be done without a PC.

However what is the success or risk of contamination, out weight the cost of a PC, which atm is on sale here in Australia some machines are 499 down to 180. Presto is stuck at 300, the cheapest price i can find out here

If you're getting a PC just make sure it can go to at least 15psi, or whatever the metric equivalent is. Sterilizing BRF in a steam pot probably has the same success rate as doing so in a PC (or at least very close). I would be willing to bet that 95% of the failures with BRF come from a contaminated syringe.

I always have the mentality of 'buy once cry once'. A well maintained PC will last for years and is priceless in this hobby. Honestly, if prestos were $300 in the states I would have probably still bought one. love it

Thank you BigFoot for explaining and the advice. I have a wild spore print - plan to do print to agar with the loop then seperate the good myc from the contaminated agar plate to a new agar plate then, then agar chunks into the prepared substrate jars.

I was just told that only cubes grown on manure work for the 'tootsie roll' extraction process. That they are stronger than those grown on coir. Any thoughts on that?
