Sock I would love to hear about the potassium idea but to OP, just simmer on medium for 20 minutes. Brings grain prep times to under 4 hours and is mush more effective.

That said if you don’t have 5/6 hrs to set aside to prep grain *i guesssssss* soaking is the best way...?

Wow there is alot here to catch up on.

Gizmo, are you enjoying the Potassium Metabisulfite soak? I love that I can have 10 buckets of grain soaking and use when ever. Works great for oats and corn. I have moved on to Safflower Seed and Black Oil Sunflower Seeds.

I need to get more oats soaking in that mix because they really don't ferment and they do hydrate better.

C10, yes you are correct. I do believe in endospores, but I also believe the PC run kills them.

The grain soak was a crazy idea I got from my last break cultivating because I was making wine.

Nature, I only believe in simmering grains. I don't believe in cold washing them after the simmer. I am a proponent of steam evaporation and not screen drying.

Hope that helps clear up the confusion.



Indeed.

You are great sockadin, thank you for clearing things up for me. Also thank you all for your help. I'm sooo happy to see helpful and caring members back in mushcult.

I cannot deny that I still have a little confusion but the main question was cleared up.

Oops I forgot to ask @sockadin- could you explain or link me to info on using the grain soak water for agar? Also you said to save it, how long can it be saved in an enclosed jar in the fridge and does the bacteria and endospores cause any issues in agar plates?
