Sterilization in the pc tinfoil
    #25145106 - 04/17/18 08:51 AM (6 years, 8 months ago)

I have read as much as i can but still a hit confused.

So we cover grain jars with Tin foil while pc'ing so moisture does not fall back down, why when we are just pc'ing a shot glass why do we cover it with tinfoil to protect the glass cracking?

Im still learning how steam Sterilization works like we cover our syringes and shot glass in tin foil so how does exactly the syringe get sterile when its wrapped up in tinfoil?

I've done most my research i know that producers in doing all this so, im just curious i need to know more, can steam penetrate thru pretty much anything no matter how well its wrapped up in tinfoil?

Also when we pc our shotglass for spore syringes, i have read alot of people not even pc'ing there shotglass just whiping with alcohol, but Alchol only sanitizes not sterilizes, this is where my mind is not confident, i dont want to whipe my shotglass with alcohol as steam is alot better for Sterilization, so if i did whipe it with alcohol it was pointless to pc? But i want to make sure the steam sterilized it

This is where im trying to figure out how do things become sterile if there wrapped up? Should we always leave tinfoil wrapped loosely so steam can get it or if steam can penterate thru anything, if anyone can please my mind and put it tl rest that would ve great!

So that you can keep the shot glass sterile. If you PC it without foil how in the world would you get it out of the cooker without contaminating it.

We unwrap the tools we cook when in front of a hood or in a still air box.

The foil isn't air tight, steam doesn't penetrate foil. It goes around it. Its not like we're rubber banding it tighty on

no! what do you mean you wrapped your shot glass too tight. i highly doubt that. anything you wipe with alcohol after pcing is now less sterile than it was.

Well i used a little slim bottle bit taller then a shot glass, I pretty much wrapped in pretty firm and squeezed both the ends, firmly :/

Put it this way i won't be doing it that firm again, not sure if i'll get away with it.. hmmmm

I did PC another jar i could use i put my sringes in it, But that jar is open not wrapped up, So once i transfer it from my PC to SAB i guess it could be contaminated anyway, Shit well i learnt my lesson here for sure.

Not sure what i should do here...

just use the foil wrapped one without wiping it. don't unwrap it until it's in the sab and everything is prepped and ready.

You cant wrap it so tight that it doesn't sterilize it. Just don't go out of your way to super tightly foil jar lids etc..
