Will agar gel reliquify in the PC?

I know I just posted a double thread, but I used the search engine for this too and nothing.

I would say no. I haven't tried it though. You would have to test it.
or put it in a container with water in it and a lid on in the microwave
to steam it to see if it reliquefies

what I meant was I made my agar really thick this time and it solidified really quick on me... I hope the PC didn't cook it then :confused:

That's a bummer. Another reason to use no pour setups imo.
1.17g of pda to 30ml of water that ratio can be adjusted in either
direction depending on the dish size. So basically it's 0.039g pda
per ml or cc of water

I usually reheat my agar from the fridge in the PC days after I initially made it to get it to re-liquify for plates.

Just don't 'cook it' but instead heat it back up in the PC, giving it a swirl ever so often until it's melted again.

Considering a PC cycle is around 250f, yeah, it is gonna liquefy your agar

PC temp doesn’t go above 212 is my understanding, but yes it will re-liquify the agar once it hits 190.

Yes that's why we pressure cook. The steam and pressure cause higher temps.
