How to make antibacterial grains 1

500g: Boiling hot water, 12g: Black tea. You will also need lime powder.
Make the tea as normal, squeeze using a fork for 5 minutes. Microwave for 2 minutes and repeat both processes.
Add powdered lime up to Ph 6, no higher. Cooked rice Ph is around 6.2 - 6.8.

Soak and then cook.

I am curious as to why this works? The black tea and all. Does it add more nutrients or how does the tea make the grains antibacterial? Looks cool just wondering the why and how it works!

Oh no problem feel free to ask away. I am guessing the presence of bacillus cereus in grains is common knowledge? Not that it is an issue if you do not know that. There are 4 active antibacterial ingredients in tea.
Two of which are active against bacillus cereus, and two more to boot.
Catechins, Tannins, Theaflavins, Theanine.

Green tea has also the same properties, however the ratio is different. I haven't tried it though sorry.

so you use this tea water for your grains and such?

Myc should still colonize it. Spores just won't germ. Mold will still grow on it, most fungicide prevents spore germination. RR claims to be able to open air colonize grains with fungicide. Do you have any pictures of tubs grown with this method? How do they compare to regular good sterile technique?

Another question: if the tea is fungicidal enough to prevent mold spores from germinating, is it something you could consider misting with as opposed to regular water? Or dunking?

So is this something you theorized while blazing a fatty, or do you have scienfific data and experiential evidence to back this up? My balls itched like a mother fucker one time, so I dipped them in hot tea, and blamo, no more ball itch. Thank you tea for solving all my life problems.

The same across the board for all commonly grown types, both active and non-active.

You could try that, and the casing with added tea idea is looking clever.

Ph will be too low, which will reduce growth speed and cause breakdown on grains. Lime is also considered lightly antibacterial, so more to boot.

More to note, going over Ph 6 will destabilize the active antibacterial ingredients. Cooked rice Ph is 6.2 - 6.8, so Ph 6 - 6.2 is perfect across the board.
I live in a hard water area, and my water Ph is 8.2 - 8.4. You will need to balance Ph manually, sorry.

Technically you would absorb more in the middle of the grain, any cooking will reduce the effects. To answer, yes it will still work, as long as the end result suits its intended purpose.

Well my advice would be make 1 or 2 small samples to play with on the side. You could even throw the tea leaves in for a bit of extra looseness.
A digital Ph pen is about £6, check Amazon or eBay.

PC about 60g of rice, inoculate with spores, transfer to T-Agar or T-Gel balanced to Ph 6. Then isolate a clean section about 28mm away from the spawn sample.
Pass to tea infused grains or normal grains as spawn.

Sounds just like the way gentamicin sulfate kills fungal spores, including cubensis spores. Strictly speaking they CAN germinate on antibacterial agar, but it's much less likely than standard agar.

The lower Ph T-Gel test I did, increased bacterial activity for 2 days. Ph 6 did the opposite, no activity.

Agreed. You can germinate mold on almost any "open air safe" grow, its just very low in chance.
Mold germinates very well on the remaining tea waste leaves, solubles removed.

Here we have accidental germination of Golden oyster spores after 2.8 days. Paper, enriched with tea leaves and fertilizer, 88% water content.

Very strong, very radial, uniform growth.

kinda sorta related: I am doing side by side P. mexicana Jalisco truffles, one ysed a 50:50 coffee:water ratio and one 50:50 tea:water. The coffee is laying waste to the tea, though the tea is still colonizing.

Lots of starch in coffee, its kinda like roasted rye berry's. No starch in tea, not so comparable. Still I am interested on how well that coffee does given it has been highly roasted.
Which is good for being clean to start with, bad for nutrition.

Bad for nutrition? Coffee is a nitrogen powerhouse and molds fast as all fuck left liquid or grounds

I don't disagree with it working, because it is widely used. Still what happens if you roast rye until black?

Tastes like shit. Still plenty of nutrition. It doesn't evaporate off. Cubensis may not prefer if blackened but most other things couldn't give a shit. Macronutrient may be broken down sure but that doesn't matter much to most microorganisms. PH may change too but also not a big game changing thing with fungi

Mmmmm...i am dubious as to high starch in coffee. Comparatively sure. But it still has VERY few calories, of which a fairly high percentage is protein .
EDIT: 2 calories for an 8 oz cup. So starch and sugars.

Fair enough bodhisatta, as long as my point was recognized correctly. No argument here on usefulness.
@PlantManBee, There is 28.5g of starch and 14.6g of protein per 100g dry roasted coffee.

No offence but you are comparing brewed tea to brewed coffee, so you still have starch in the coffee as a difference. The other thing is are you using the leaves alongside, because coffee is fully soluble in comparison.

2 calories of starch vs. 2 calories of starch (likely starch, the caloric values are not separated in any value tables i've come across) is NOT a difference at all. Evidence suggests there is not an appreciable difference in starch content. That is just what i see. If you can tell me why i am misinterpreting the information i would love that.
Other nutrients like minerals are going to have much larger differences between the two than the starch content. Caffeine and tannins are likely WAY different between the two, but starch is practically nonexistent in the brewed beverages unless you add some.
BTW, I DO have lot's of biology credits under my belt. Again, clarity and is my goal regarding the organisms we're playing with. Good work so far! I mean that!

You will still need to use all of the tea to be comparable. Try Tea Granules, tempted to try it myself.

for what it's worth every beer I've made with tea had counts come up when it was plated for QA. that's tea not added during the boil. it's tea steeped at 185-212F (depending on the tea) and then injected into the bright beer tanks. obviously it's way more diluted. but despite the antibacterial action of hops the tea still made beers get counts of bacteria.
I suppose I wouldn't call this antibacterial grains, it would be inhibited bacteria grains. with some component of the tea'ing being somewhat antibacterial

Haha no I just have vocabulary issues sometimes. I find it hard to words, but I try.  I also grow a big rubbery one anytime I see words like colloquialisms being used in appropriate situations. I'm very thankful to live in a time where I can look up big fancy words in the dictionary at any given time

Usually when people click ignore after the only thing I told them was the truth. Once that happens I start answering all their questions very comprehensively so that everybody else is like "well inoc got it covered.." and doesn't answer them, so then they think everyone else is ignoring them and end up doing goofy shit like grow in the dark for years. Petty? Absolutely. Hilarious way to fuck with someone who thinks they're rid of me forever? Even more so.

I welcome any ideas, improvements, suggestions, nay say and so on, as long as comments are on topic. Open air colonization I can do, I can also infect it with dust lying around the house.
By all means, if you have time, and are willing feel free to experiment.
Or prove me completely wrong, I don't mind

I ran two tests at first, one I can take current images, the other one I can do again but have no current assembly.
The first test was a tea bag (3g) with 3g of grain flour and 1g fertilizer cooked for 2 minutes. It got bacteria, but it stalled after 2 days, it is still stalled now, and visibly obvious.
The second I assembled TGF-Tek and microwaved only for 20 minutes. I did not pressure cook, and no infection occurred at all.
The latter however needs further testing.

I almost feel like running all your teks together. Put a clone in your tea-agar then cut a piece into tea/ grain water for lc . injecting into your tea-grains. Then top end it in a mono tub cased in tea casing. Ps more test i run fail

this.
its not up to us to prove your stuff wrong, when you make claims and write teks etc its up to you to show how good it works from start to finish.
If you claim soaking grains in tea helps inhibit or even removes already growing bacteria from a culture, you need to show it with pics and back up your claims.
OP here just shows how to make black tea as far as i'm concerned

Gets shit on for burden of proof. 
name of the thread is "how to make antibacterial grains". then he should prove it works, not wait 100 replies deep into the thread to say you can test it if you like. its just not how shit works here. if you have an idea or crazy theory, just call your thread "crazy theory/untested idea". not TEK on how to... etc! understand what we're getting at?
now you get a bunch of newbs finding this thinking its proven shit, a new tek to help you avoid bacteria etc.
smells like bAnnies shit all over again IMO!

Testing we have logged so far: here, here and here. I am not using starch in my testing, both katbusa and Mycolorado are using ME. I did some additional testing with ratios, enrichments, and Ph. Data was highly conclusive after the Ph testing.
The correct ratio required to infuse materials with antibacterial effects was established.

I've looked through those threads several times now but I still cant find the pics of colonizing grains or any mushrooms growing, could you perhaps help me and show the direct link? I'm feeling kinda dumb over here..

Give me some time and I will log some hard testing. I've not logged any of my light testing. My current focus is on cleaning several samples I have, so bare with me, sorry.

I have 4 small containers and 1kg of rye, I can do PC vs Microwave, 2 covered 2 uncovered. I can also do enriched, Ph changed and so on, all recipe's tea infused.
Can start sometime next week, probably closer to Friday.

if you wanna show the antibacterial properties of the tea rather do some with tea some without tea. only change 1 vector at a time, dont start messing with ph,microwaves and all that stuff at once.
It'd be cool if you could take samples of bacterial cultures put to tea-grains and regular grains and show how the tea helps rid the bacteria.
that's the point of this thread, right? If I'm not completely mistaken?

Indeed. First point taken, will do. I will have to assemble something for the bacteria cultivation. I can try and isolate some bacillus cereus from grains, bear with me then.

you dont really need to do that, just squirt a good 1/2 - 1 cc from a spore syringe to an agar plate and you'll be sure to get at least some bacteria.
I mean, you have done this yourself and seen bacteria disappear once put to grains right? since you've already made the thread and posted the howto? or is this just guesswork based off a theory?

I made up 4 plates with Tea/PDA mixture to see what happens myself...I have some transfers from contamed plates and I will see if it cleans them up or what?

I used infected spawn, it doesn't disappear alone, but it does stall and stay that way, mycelium over grow it.

Yes it will, allow it to grow out and take a transfer to normal agar, to verify.

Is some more detailed evidence supporting ferather. I am still a little skeptical of the antibiotic properties lasting through the PC but green tea would be the way to go.

I've just added spent tea bags cut open in the past to grains as a nitrogen boost. Doesn't hurt anything.
If you want to test the theory make his tea agar and a controlled agar. Get two sterilized qtips. Stick them in your moth and apply to the two different agars.
If his theory is correct than your tea agar will have less bacteria growth.
Green tea is more antibacterial than black. I am not sure why his teks are for black compared to green

I can do that later tonight... I have to make a couple transfers anyway and already made up plates with/without tea so, I'll sterilize some q-tips when I sterilize my x-acto knife.. And we'll see what happens

Here are the active ingrediants, and relative melting points: Catechins (175 °C), Tannins (200 °C), Theaflavins (240°C), Theanine (174 °C). As you can see they can be pressure cooked with no issues and remain active after the cooking process.

Here is a spent black tea bag (3g) enriched with grain flour (3g), and fertilizer (1g). Cooked for 2 minutes. The bacteria grew after 24 hours, stalled, hardened and has been like that for 4 weeks.
Here is the nearly 50/50 spent tea and grain.

Can take images at any point.
----
Here is T-Gel enriched with the same fertilizer.

Here is normal T-Gel after 4 hours.

Here is the same sample a few days later.

Rescued from trich too in this case.

Here is T-Gel limed to Ph6.

No bacteria, same spawn.

These are all well and good but it's not really conclusive in terms of actual application in the hobby. For instance without actual grows completed there is no way to see if there are unintended benefits or drawbacks. What kind of costs are we looking at? I make a nopour plate for about how much do those tgel/plant ferts/teabag plates cost?
While it may seem like the mush cult regs like to just crush dreams the fact is that at the end of the day they just don't have patience for unproven junk science. Burden of proof is on the presenter. Come back with some real results and I bet you see a warmer reception.

I think if the thread was named "working towards antibacterial grains" the whole kerfuffle about claims would be baseless. It's great you are doing the work and sharing, but folks were wanting to come in here and bingo, no more bacteria.
Maybe they have the right to be disappointed but are going overboard in their ire. It's not like you are getting paid for your experiments, so screw em.

you gotta remember us regulars here try and help people grow mushrooms daily, it gets real tiresome having to explain over and over why some random TEK they found on the search engine doesnt work.
So its just way easier to speak up right in the TEK and tell everyone right away what's wrong with it or how it really should be done. And that way maybe there wont be so many new TEKs that just dont hold merit.

I get it. However, welcome to getting older. There are always new people with the same questions. So, you might as well get used to it. they ALWAYS regenerate.
