Also whenever I just took the foil off there was some condensation on the inside of the top of the foil and on the polyfil. How do prevent that? Or is that normal?

Oh, dude, unless you’re inoculating with 1 tiny wedge, that’ll work fine. You just need space so you can shake the jars. I’d use them as is and just throw a couple extra wedges in there.

Those dont look too full for Liquid inoculants, they also dont look overhydrated at all to me, if anything a little under. Millet is  bitch to hydrate fully. If I was doing ms to grains (which I probably wouldnt since spores are inherently dirty) I would use those exactly as they are. Squirt the liquid up against the glass only on one side so you can see the germ and growth points. Do not shake.

Oh you’re planning to use a spore syringe...

Yikes

You should have done pints then. Spores take forever, even with a normal amount of grain.

I did this not too long ago, but I filled my jars to about 1/3 full. They still took over 3 weeks and only 2/7 were clean enough for g2g.
Get with agar mayne.

I'm using a syringe. And I already dumped one of the jars. It had condensation on the inside of the top of the foil and on the polyfil. How do I avoid that?

You don’t.
Stop over complicating lol. If the tek doesn’t mention it, it’s not important. (Just make sure your tek isn’t 15 years old lol)

Well I'm dumping them because each one has condensation on the inside of the top of the foil where I was covering the polyfil, and there's also a little condensation on the polyfil. How do I stop that?

If you want to waste it all go ahead but the exact same thing is gonna happen next time and it wont matter then either.

They were wrong. Just make sure they dry out asap. You could use a piece of paper towel but I never bothered when I was using polyfil lids. Now I use synthetic filter discs and I dont even have to use foil.

Agar is simple. Click the link in my signature for how to use and to make it just mix 8g agar agar flakes 8g light malt extract and 400ml water. Pc in a bottle and pour in sterile petris or pc in pp5 plastic or small jars  for 20 min at 15 psi.

Buddy your jars are fine. Your initial description made me think that they were absolutely full to the brim. Those will be fine for a shake, but still only use a literal drop out of the syringe. The more spore solution you put in the more likely it is to contaminate.

So condensation is to be expected on the polyfil?

For the 5th or 6th time yes, its not ideal and you want to dry it asap somewhere clean. But no matter wwhat you do you’re using steam to cook jars. Its gonna get a little bit steamy.
