PC'ing Agar. unmodified lid ok??
    #24261419 - 04/21/17 09:32 AM (6 years, 10 months ago)

About to make and PC a batch of agar to pour into petri's.

My question, until I buy one or two nice 500ml pyrex bottles, can I just PC the agar in a mason jar with a unmodified lid?

I have half pints, pints, and quarts. The only alcohol bottle I have on hand is 375ml and I don't want to use it.

It's probably fine if you loosen the lid a bit and put foil over the top.  I've never modified the caps of my media bottles.  A liquor bottle of some kind would probably make the pour a lot easier than a mason jar.

:whathesaid:

A mason jar is no good, use a long neck bottle. A mason jar will turn into a mess.

I use an orangina bottle which does the trick as well
