Uneven agar. Microwave?
    #24828982 - 12/05/17 10:04 PM (6 years, 3 months ago)

So just pulled some agar out of the PC, and something shifted during the process, which caused the agar to pool slightly to one side. Creating an uneven 'pour'. What's the best way to correct these w/o having to re-PC?
Thanks all!!!

That's pretty severe. Depending on what you're using them for, just do all of your work toward the upper half. Place the jar on a slant so the agar is level.

There are ways to work around this.

You'll still get germination. Just squirt a few drops on the peak. The solution will trickle down.

I cant tell if you're trying to be a smart ass or not. I'll assume you're not.

Just work with what you've got. Half my first batch of agar was slanted because I had a small PC. They ultimately worked, but I enjoyed the next flat batch far more.

Thanks all!!!




Best way to correct this in the future is taking the plates out of the pc when the gauge hits zero and the plates are still hot. Put them on a flat surface so the agar sets level. I let them solidify on my kitchen counter. No, there's no risk of contamination whatsoever.


Wait some minutes till the agar solidifies and store them in a plastic tote.



Leaving the plates in the pc overnight... what a horrible, terrible practice :facepalm:  IMO
