You open up for grain, why not BRF?

So I'm now at the point of working with agar. I feel like because I work with brf, that LC is my only option to move on. If you open up for LC's and grain then when not transfers to brf? Maybe I'm missing something but it would be all the same under a SAB?

You can do that. the thing with brf is you cant do g2g with them but if you have lots of CLEAN lc then you can use it to inoculate brf cakes.

That's what I've been doing. I've been working with a few strains and obviously I realized that to get clean LC I needed to start working with agar. Got lucky with a RW syringe but the others seemed to be bacterial. So maybe LC is the way to go for me as I've been doing?

Agar to LC then to agar again just to test the lc you were colonizing, only then can you use your lc to knock up all the brfs you can ever dream of.

I'm not sure exactly what you're saying, but you can't call BRF grain. You can grind up cakes and spawn to bulk, but this is not one of the better ways to go.
BRF is brown rice (not one of the preferred grains here) ground into flour.
Save yourself the time and trouble. Buy a pressure cooker, buy 50 pounds of oats for $12, and buy quart mason jars.
There might be an adjustment period, but eventually you will have more shrooms than you know what to do with.

I know of atleast one person who spawns brf cakes(pf tek, with verm) to shoeboxes with commendable results.

Not that I've been doing that for a long time but I've tried 3 times to go BRF to Bulk and failed miserably. Don't know why.

Totally, it's doable. But if OP is going to go as far as LC's they could simply do grain instead of BRF. The same or easier to inoculate (just pour a little LC in there) than a PF TEK cake and they'd get higher yields for their efforts, and more reliable spawning to bulk. Not to mention plenty of grain masters to refrigerate for future grows.
Another option that's more intermediate /advanced difficulty can be Agar-> Agar LI "slurry"-> PF TEK. Eatyualive does this to make master cakes to slurry and expand, says by using clean LI he gets colonization in 3-5 days.
Josex has an awesome method for inoculating LC's:

Ive seen those writeups, its actually one of the few writeups that I favorited for future reference.
LI is da shit. Havent tried it yet though.
I havent done that biopsy method too. Its a good technique...
