Do you have an HMart out there? They carry a ton of mushrooms and their oysters are honestly bad quality- and they generally have a medicinal mushroom shop- with very high prices. If you do I would check them out.

To clear things up, yes endospores are a thing and soaking helps them to germinate.  Then you can kill them in the pc.  It's mostly helpful if you're expanding grain spawn, if not theN you can skip.  It also depends oN the grain, what grade it is etc.  Feed grain is not cleaned as much as human food grade for instance and feed grain is much dirtier but cheaper.

Yes soaking a riseing feed grains is easy for shaking. For oats im big fan of the new boiling for a hour method of prepared but i still soak them before hand. Maybe this would improve your draining system. Soak your grain in whole buckets like normal. But get a cheap laundry sink with legs, then hot glue two window screens to fit inside it coving the whole sink. Put a pale under yhe drain hole to cacth your grain water. There done i know my sink with hold 50lbs of dry grain fully hydrated.

Drake, I should have worded it better. I realize endospores exist, but the rumors that go around about double PC'ing or having to go out of your way to kill endospores is a myth/wasted effort. Once you hit 240+F for XX time you get 100% lethality of every single living organism/spore/seed/endospore/bacteria.

Tump, im trying to simplify as much as possible, The picture has 33 lbs of grain, so it probably could also fit 50 lbs.  A big sink would get in the way and take up valuable floor space. And a window screen would probably collapse under the weight of all this grain, and rip when i go to scoop, and what do you do when you get to the bottom? You cant dump it out like a tote. These totes stack and go under the table when not in use. Its also mobile, today i used it in my chamber to soak shiitake blocks, I put the blocks in then put the tote with holes on top with a heavy grain pail to hold down the blocks. I then filled the bottom tote with water. After a few hours i opened the drain and re racked the blocks once empty.
