Quarts vs pints

Been having a lot of failure with quart jars lately, my pint jars do great. I’m using polyfil lids 1/4” hole. I noc’ed up 10 pints and 10 quarts at the same time to see if it was my sterilization or the grain prep all pints were good and 7 quarts got mold and bacteria. What could be happening?

I wrap the lids with tin foil, stack 10 quarts and pc for 2 hours, I let them sit over night inside the pc, I have a AA so I just leave the weight on. I take them out one by one and tighten the lids and shake to distribute moisture. I usually inoculate same day or the day after taking them out.

So you don't even know what venting is and you tried to answer my question with irrelevant info or you didn't answer the one question i had for a different reason?

Sounds like you need to leave them in there an extra hour.
More bulk needs more pressure or time.
Or vent if you’re not venting like bod said, which is the same thing really but would be faster than cooking longer.

10 minutes is the vent time. I got a Presto PC. It came with a manual. I read the manual. It explicitly states in there to vent for 10 minutes. Also, there is a specific sequence of steps on the cool down. Do not remove the regulator until the pressure button has fallen (the gauge will likely already read 0, but you have to wait for the pressure indicator to fall. Then remove the regulator and again you wait for 10 minutes before opening.
