Black stuff after shaking oat jar
    #26973572 - 10/07/20 10:23 AM (3 years, 3 months ago)



What is it? Should I toss it right away?

My other jars seem fine after shaking.

Did you use coffee in your grain prep?

Definitely toss it. That looks super gnarly.  Idk what it is though, but that doesn't matter much. Looks like black mold, but idk how all those black spores or whatever they are hid from you and just appeared at shake. There sure is a ton of it though.  Very weird

Tossed. These jars were PC-sterilized for 3+ hours after venting. My pressure cooker is only rated for .7 bar (116C/239F), but this should be plenty for molds and such, right?

Thats like 10 PSI, and according to this thread it should be fine : https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/25290378

You may need to use smaller jars and maybe change oat prep method? Maybe try foomans if you dont already.

an easier way to do bods tek without boiling the oats. Just boil water, add oats to boiling water and turn off heat and cover, soak for 45 minutes, drain water, dry oats for about 20-30 minutes, bottle, then PC. Works all the time for me.

Yeah, I'm just reading up on it. Looks like something I should try.

On the other hand, I can't see how it would affect contamination. Does grain prep tek before PCing matter at all when it comes to contams?

In as much as you don't want dead grains going into the PC, yes.

What do your good jars look like?
