Minimize G2G contams?
    #23976294 - 01/02/17 02:05 PM (7 years, 28 days ago)

For G2G, would there be less chance for contams by doing 1:3 twice, rather than 1:10 once? Yeah, there would 2 chances for contams to enter, but colonization would be much faster. Maybe it would depend on whether a SAB or FH was used...?

If you mean transfering 1/10 of a donor jar once vs 1/3 of donor jar twice just wait for the 1/10 to colonize a bit and shake the hell out of it... no need to introduce more contam vectors..

    I read in a tek on this site (can't find it right now) that shaking it again after the initial transfer would actually slow things down, rather than speed them up. But maybe what I read was an old, out of date tek. Have you actually verified for yourself that this works to speed things up?

a great example of a proper and not so proper shake...the left jar was a quick shake the right one was shaken turned shaken again to evenly distribute everything

ive found it only takes longer not shaking them. never really any problem with extra contams or later more easily ruined myc. a lot of people have been saying that not evenly distributed grain shakes will make for more easily contam. opinionns? i have found that to be false...
