Agar help
    #25178210 - 05/01/18 03:17 PM (5 years, 10 months ago)

Ok so I have compiled what I believe I need to start working with agar:

1) Telephone brand agar-agar powder
2) Malt Extract Agar (MEA)
3) Petri dishes
4) Pyrex beaker to hold agar
5) Scalpel
6) Multi spore syringe

My question is this: What recipe do I use? I have been doing a lot of research and I'm still a bit confused. I was mostly banking on BODS tek (https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/21922023/fpart/all/vc/1) but the recipe is confusing to me.

My thought is this:

20g MEA, 20g telephone agar-agar, and then fill the rest of the bottle up with water until the 400mL line.

This is confusing because other teks advise 10g of each rather than 20g and I'm just a bit lost on the exact recipe.

Any links to agar teks or general agar advice is appreciated. Thanks

MEA is already agar + malt...

You make MEA by adding agar + malt extract + water together

20grams of agar is for 1000mL or 1L for 400mL you use 8g of agar and 8g of malt powder.
If you have MEA it will tell you how much Grams to add to how much water on the packaging.

You're a bit lost on the 2nd graders math. You need to use multiplication and division. The exact recipe is listed as a ratio. So that you can figure out what you need no matter how much you want to make

20g/1L
Is
10g/500mL
8g/400mL
2g/100mL
1g/50mL

And so on
