PC Question - Mine only has 15lb weight and I want to steralize grain at 5lb
    #26975372 - 10/08/20 11:56 AM (3 years, 3 months ago)

Hey

Can anyone advise the best thing to do here?

My PC only has a 15lb weight.  There is no other weight with it.. I tried to see if I could buy a lighter weight for it but I dont think it can be got.

I want to sterilize grain, I'm doing Popcorn Tek.

All tutorials and video etc I have seen so far suggest using a 5 - 8lb weight for about 30 mins to sterilize and hydrate the grain.

This is the PC I have

Any suggestions what best option is here??

Thanks

Popcorn tek is dreadful. Don't waste your time.

You need 15 psi to sterilize any grains. Popcorn isn't special. 5-8 lbs won't cut it.

Don't use that tek, it's garbage. Your chances for success is super low, and risk for contamination is very high.

The weight that came with it should be for 15psi max usually, as mentioned already all grains need 15psi for atleast 90 minutes.

I recommend using Rye grains there perfect, but you could also just go for what ever is the cheapest/easyest to get:)

What munch said. Precisely. Exactly. Indubitably.
