so I just got some new 100L autoclaves, I fire one up with 25 bags, the dry run alarm is super sensitive to the water level so I have to start over. this results in having to refold and pack some bags in a second time.
I hate redoing good work. this is only the beginning. I ADJUST the water level. Still trying to figure out the right amount this time it works; I set it to .15MPA (21psi).
I run it for 180 min @ 21 psi and allow a 5 hour cool down period.
Pressure gauge reads 0, but guess what, its still hot and steaming inside and theres still pressrure from the seal and I find this out because when I open the valve ( SAME style valve as AA75x) I hear the HISSSSS of pressure which I know means my bags are fucked.
THEY WERE. 25 bags down. oops. Try again tomorrow.
Remedy will be; Going to start the cook in the AM and let it cool down for 24 hours.

Dope. Thx for the info A.K.A and D3monic. I figured those might be my non-lazy options- just didn't know if letting the flow hood ride was acceptable, overkill, or a waste of filter hours.
Do ya'll have a preference between prints and swabs? Been doing prints for the most part, but swabs just seem so much easier and cut out a step going to agar. The only downside I can see is that you get a lot more mileage out of prints

Well due to a yet unknown labeling fuckup either taking from slant or after, I now have possibly almost a dozen tubs of mystery culture that were planned and executed APE tubs.

Now Im going back and retesting all my slant cultures to verify my shit.....God damnit man.

Lol...
I had an agar fuckup recently too
Didnt have time to wait for agar to solidify (about 80 plates) so i just left the hood on and was gonna bag em up when i got back from drinking w the homies
Well the damned power went out.. so the next day i threw most away, but kept 5 plates to see how fucked they actually were
Turns out they were totally fine lol

Yeah I always pour them and then kill the hood and come back in the morning and wrap the stacks.
Lol I’ve had a bunch of plates with bare spots where I ran out of agar. They’re perfect for spore or t1s

I'm a little OCD for plates like that. Just pour stack sets of 10 quickly, then give them a gentle circular shuffle on your pouring surface to distribute agar before gelling.

lol yeah it took me way too long to figure out spinning the stack 180 when I finish pouring makes them level out.
Definitely beats getting a level and sliding matchbooks under the table legs.

I fucking squirted LC on my fucking filter...
Havent used a syringe in a hot minute, been pouring my LC. Found an old, PC'd syringe and wanted to test it on an extra grain jar. Sucked up the leftover LC, and as I was moving to the jar, my lovely mutt nudged his way through the door to say hi.
Me being hyper-focused on the task at hand, his wagging tail scared the ever living fuck out of me, and I squirted.
Wasnt a crazy amount, but I couldnt see where on the filter it landed. Spent 30 minutes with iso soaked q tips carefully cleaning the damn thing.
I gotta fix that door latch...

Ouch I would hate to get anything on my filter other than a tiny bit of iso. I accidently got a couple of pieces of millet stuck in mine from doing a Jar to bag and I got worried that it might grow some contams in the filter from where they got up in there. Of course I fished em out but still sucks.
I forgot I had done this but I guess this is appropriate. So I made a bunch of no pours and let the PSI get to high and this happened to like 20 out of 40 plates I was making. They all turned inwards on both sides from the pressure haha.

I was just using them as scalpel cooling plates and decided to try to use one for a PE clone to see what happens and it worked pretty well honestly lol, Might just keep using them.

And also on one of the plates I was using a scalpel cooler I suppose a small piece of mycellium got stuck in one from my scalpel (even though it was red hot?) and this was on a plate I chucked in the box.

Might try to transfer just to see what it was haha it was obviously a strong ass culture to survive the heat and keep on growing.

Here you go... ran the PC first thing in the morning, no problems... loaded up the second run, lit the burner and wandered off... buddy stopped by... weed was smoked... forgot about the PC. Did drop the weight on, just boiled it dry with the vent open...
Whoops!
