Shelf life of LME?
    #26554756 - 03/24/20 09:15 AM (3 years, 10 months ago)

So a few years ago I either sold or packed up all my myco supplies and called it quits. Now that Im getting my feet wet again, Im digging the stuff out and seeing whats still usable.

Ive got a vacuum sealed bag of Light Malt Extract that I got in trade right before I packed up, and pulling it out now. It seems to have melted and reformed into a little brick of brittle but bendable...idk what. It used to be a powder.

Its probably out for mixing with agar, and I have a fresh jar of MEA anyways, but Im wondering if I can still use it for LCs. Just break off some chunks and dissolve it in some hot water before PCing.

You think this stuff is still viable for myco work?

I'm sure it'll still work for agar as well as LCs it gets real hard to dissolve once it gets like that but I dissolve it the best I can them filter out the leftover sediment.

Only one way to know for sure if it's still good though. Try it out.

It's probably still good from the nutritional perspective. But it's probably going to be a bit hard to use.

My guess is it just sucked a bit of water and it melted.

Appreciate the advice. I think Im gonna unpack it and then shred it up real fine on a garlic grater or something thatll powder it. Throw a couple desiccant packs in for good measure.

I wouldn't bother trying to powder it again at this point. What I do is just break it up and use it in chunks.

Yea it didnt really powder. Just kinda splintered into really small shards until it warmed and gummed up. Stuck it in the freezer and gonna whack it with a hammer to break it into little bits.

Of course I find my old LME. The giant bag of dozens, if not 100+, prints (along with $200+ worth of canna seeds) is nowhere to be found lol. Too bad, there was some good varieties in there, and I got nothing to trade with atm lol. Wanna get some of that RustyWhyte and some other new stuff that came while I was away.

Ima have to keep looking through my crap.
